Visual Studio Package Management UI

Current Behavior

Currently in a fresh install of Visual Studio 2022, the default package management format is set to Packages.config.

This tends to throw people off with certain project types that do support PackageReference which requires the user to figure out the current behavior, NuGet options, and change the default behavior after removing the packages.config file to restart.

Desired Behavior

We should change the default behavior to PackageReference in this dropdown.
