I am working on a .Net console app with c# and I have just added the Newtonsoft.Json using statement but VS code points it out as an error
The type or namespace name 'Newtonsoft' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
and suggests I remove unnecessary using statements but it's not unnecessary since I need it for serialization. Is this a general problem or am I doing something wrong? An Image showing the error prompt
You are getting the exception because the compiler could not find the Newtonsoft library. You will need to make sure you have installed it and added it as reference. You can do this through NuGET or add the library manually as a refrence.
