  • This error typically happens when ABP Studio tries to manage the ABP CLI as a .NET global tool, but your machine’s tool state / NuGet sources are inconsistent (e.g., ABP Studio tries to uninstall volo.abp.cli although it’s not installed, or dotnet tool can’t reach the feed it is configured to use).

  1. Verify what ABP-related .NET tools are installed

  dotnet tool list -g
  

  2. If you have an old ABP CLI tool installed, remove it (ignore errors if it’s not there)

  dotnet tool uninstall -g Volo.Abp.Cli
  

  3. Install (or update) the ABP Studio CLI explicitly

  dotnet tool update -g Volo.Abp.Studio.Cli
  # or first-time install:
  dotnet tool install -g Volo.Abp.Studio.Cli
  

  4. If installation/update fails due to NuGet feed issues (very common in corporate environments):

  • Check your global/user NuGet.Config and remove/fix unreachable enterprise feeds (or ensure nuget.org is available).
  • Then retry step (3).

  5. Restart ABP Studio and run the prerequisite check again.

  If ABP Studio still reports the error after these steps, it’s almost always because dotnet tool is using a NuGet source that is unreachable (ABP Studio depends on dotnet tool working correctly to install its CLI).

  Got this error installing Tool 'volo.abp.studio.cli' failed to update due to the following: The settings file in the tool's NuGet package is invalid: Settings file 'DotnetToolSettings.xml' was not found in the package. Tool 'volo.abp.studio.cli' failed to install. Contact the tool author for assistance

  • That DotnetToolSettings.xml was not found in the package error is almost always caused by a corrupted/incomplete NuGet package in your local cache (so dotnet tool downloads/uses a broken copy and then fails to find the settings file inside it).

  Do the following in order:

  1. Uninstall the tool (ignore errors if it’s not installed)

  dotnet tool uninstall -g Volo.Abp.Studio.Cli
  

  2. Clear all local NuGet caches (this forces a clean re-download)

  dotnet nuget locals all --clear
  

  3. Install again from a clean state

  dotnet tool install -g Volo.Abp.Studio.Cli
  

  4. If you’re behind a corporate proxy / have custom NuGet feeds: Make sure your NuGet.Config doesn’t prioritize an internal feed that returns broken content or blocks nuget.org. After fixing feeds, repeat steps (2) and (3).

  Hi,

  The latest Volo.Abp.Studio.Cli requires the .NET 10 SDK, so this error usually means the machine doesn't have it (or an older SDK is being used).

  Could you run the command below and share the output?

  dotnet --list-sdks
  

  If .NET 10 is not in the list, install the .NET 10 SDK from https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/10.0

  Then install the CLI from an empty folder with a global.json to make sure the .NET 10 SDK is used:

  mkdir test
  cd test
  dotnet new globaljson --sdk-version 10.0.100 --roll-forward latestFeature
  dotnet tool install -g Volo.Abp.Studio.Cli
  

  After that, restart ABP Studio and it should pass the prerequisite check.

  Thanks
