    Hi shivashpal-5723,

    Welcome to our Microsoft Q&A platform!

    "Xamarin.Forms.Core" is contained in "Xamarin.Forms", so try to uninstall the "Xamarin.Forms" Nuget Package and install the latest version.

    Then delete the "bin" and "obj" folder under project path, and clean&rebuild the project.

    Regards,
    Kyle
