Install using NuGet Packages
This article describes how you can install the WinForms suite using a NuGet package. There are two ways for getting the NuGet packages:
The NuGet packages for Telerik UI for WinForms are created with a newer version of nuget.exe since R1 2018. If Visual Studio 2012 is used and the version of NuGet Package Manager is below 2.8, it won`t be able to install the NuGet packages. The possible solution is to update the version of NuGet Package Manager following these steps: 1. Open Visual Studio 2012 2. Tools >> Extensions and Updates 3. Updates >> Visual Studio gallery 4. NuGet Package Manager >> Update

Download from the NuGet server
You need to add the Telerik package server (https://nuget.telerik.com/v3/index.json) to the package sources in visual studio.
The old https://nuget.telerik.com/nuget server will be deprecated and we encourage our clients to switch to the v3 API. The new v3 API is faster, lighter, and reduces the number of requests from NuGet clients.
