How To Fix Missing Assembly Reference 'Microsoft.Xaml.Interactivity.dll' in Windows Store App Solution?

Question

I have a Windows Store App solution which worked fine up until I installed Nuget Packages and Extentions from Catel. Now when I build the solution I get about 12 build errors with the following description originating from my startup project's .csproj file:

Cannot resolve Assembly or Windows Metadata file 'Microsoft.Xaml.Interactivity.dll'

One would think, remove then add the reference again but you cannot manage the framework's assembly references.

Right click on your project => add reference => Windows 8.1 (tab) => select "Behaviors SDK (XAML)"

What do I do if I don't have the "Behaviors SDK (XAML)" option? What do I need to install? – Jason Anderson Sep 19 '15 at 02:56

In 2015 try References -> "Add Reference" -> "Universal Windows" -> Extensions -> "Behaviors SDK (XAML)". – Mark Feldman Nov 05 '15 at 02:24

In 2016 (for UWP app) get it from nuget -> https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Xaml.Behaviors.Uwp.Managed/ – David Spence Jan 23 '16 at 22:25
