How to unlock NLog.config on Visual Studio 2019

Question

After installing NLog and NLog.config using NuGet package manager I am unable to edit NLog.config, it shows lock icon on it. How to unlock it?

Answer 1

For newer projects the NLog.Config package is not recommended.

From: https://www.nuget.org/packages/NLog.config

Note: Unfortunately this package won't work well when using <PackageReference>

Advised to:

• download manually: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NLog/NLog/dev/src/NuGet/NLog.Config/content/NLog.config
• set "Copy To Output Directory" to "Copy if newer"
