asp.net compilation/runtime error
I have an ASP.NET web forms project, currently running in .net 4.5 version. I am trying to migrate the source code to bitbucket. I pushed the code and compiled the project successfully. when I try to run the project, I get an runtime error shown below -
Could not load file or assembly <add assembly="System.Web.Helpe
In the project, under references I see system.web.helpers.dll, but the inside the folder (C:\documents\repos\myproj
when i go to nuget package manager , and search for system.web.helpers.dll , I can't find it.
Questions -
1. Is this dll no longer available and is replaced by something else?
2. I suppose, when the project was created initially, a reference to dll was added to the project. and looking at the folder path for the dll in the project ( C:\documents\repos\myproje
3. or was this dll availabe in older version of .net ? if i update the .net framework version, I would probably need to update other dlls too, which I am trying to avoid.
4. what are best practices in such situations?

1. I installed Microsoft.AspNet.WebPages via Nuget package manager. It downloaded the dll in -->
packages\Microsoft.Web.Inf
I know nuget keeps track of the project dependencies in package.json file. but this packages folder that it added, is this something we have to keep track of in the code repository? or when someone else clones the project , nuget will automatically download the dependencies in their machine also?
