Hello Azhagiri,

Thank you for taking time to post this issue in Microsoft Q&A forum.

Just as error message mentioned, “You are trying to install this package into a project that targets .NETFramework, Version=v4.5, but the package does not contain any assembly references or content files that are compatible with that framework.”

You need to use a project based on .NET Framework 4.6.1+ or .NET Standard 2.0+ or .NET Core and .NET 5 2.0+ to install this X.PagedList.Mvc.Core – Version 7.6.0. So the solution is changing to use the corresponding .NET versions from your project properties > Target framework, or creating and using a new project that based on the above .NET versions (the solution should dependent on your detailed develop situation).

The reason:

The X.PagedList.Mvc.Core – Version 7.6.0 dependents on .NETStandard2.0, Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Core (>=2.1.2), Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.ViewFeatures (>=2.1.2), X.PagedList (>=7.6.0).

And refer to this document: .NET implementation support, you need to use a project based on .NET Framework 4.6.1+ or .NET Standard 2.0+ or .NET Core and .NET 5 2.0+ to install this X.PagedList.Mvc.Core – Version 7.6.0.
