When I try to open the NuGet Package Manager Console I get the following error. Am not sure what is preventing the Package Manager Console to open.
Each package is licensed to you by its owner. NuGet is not responsible for, nor does it grant any licenses to, third-party packages. Some packages may include dependencies which are governed by additional licenses. Follow the package source (feed) URL to determine any dependencies.
Package Manager Console Host Version 4.5.0.4685
Type 'get-help NuGet' to see all available NuGet commands.
Unable to find fallback package folder 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\NuGetPackagesFallback\'.

To open the Package Manager Console in Visual Studio, select Tools > NuGet Package Manager > Package Manager Console from the top menu. The console is a Visual Studio window that you can arrange and position as you like. For more information, see Customize window layouts in Visual Studio.
From Visual Studio, select Tools > NuGet Package Manager > Package Manager Console. After the Package Manager Console pane opens, verify that the Default project drop-down list shows the project in which you want to install the package. If you have a single project in the solution, it's preselected.
To find and install a NuGet package with Visual Studio, follow these steps: Load a project in Solution Explorer, and then select Project > Manage NuGet Packages. The NuGet Package Manager window opens. Select the Browse tab to display packages by popularity from the currently selected source (see Package sources).
Switch to the Browse tab, search for the package name, select it, then select Install). For all packages, delete the package folder, then run nuget install . For a single package, delete the package folder and use nuget install <id> to reinstall the same one.
I had the same issue and I fixed it by creating the requested folder.
Hope this works for you too.

Start PowerShell as Administrator and run the following command:
mkdir "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\NuGetPackagesFallback"
Then restart Visual Studio and everything should work.
