The name 'Scripts' does not exists in the current context in MVC

Question

In my mvc application, In the _Layout.cshtml has code below...

Answer 1

Please Follow My Step will Clear this

First

• Install Microsoft.AspNet.Web.Optimisation
• Check that the App_Start Folder contains a BundleConfig.cs File.
• Add <namespaces> <add namespace="System.Web.Optimization"/> </namespaces> in Views/web.config File
• Add BundleConfig.RegisterBundles(BundleTable.Bundles); in Global.asax.cs
• Rebuild and Run it

Answer 2

In VisualStudio 2019,I was able to solve this error. Microsoft.Web.Optimization is now included in the 'Microsoft.AspNet.Web.Optimization' package. Using NuGet Packing Manager download the package. In .cshtml file add "@using System.Web.Optimization;

Answer 3

The following in .chtml solves the problem

@using System.Web.Optimization
@Scripts.Render("~/Content/css")
@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/modernizr")

Answer 4

There is still intellisense problem, you can add this code to Application_Start() method that inside global.asax file.

BundleConfig.RegisterBundles(BundleTable.Bundles);

Answer 5

Make sure your ~/Views/Web.Config adds the System.Web.Optimization namespace:

<system.web.webPages.razor>
    <pages>
      <namespaces>
        <add namespace="System.Web.Optimization"/>
      </namespaces>
    </pages>
</system.web.webPages.razor>
