how to remove helper warnings at visual studio mvc view page

While working on MVC project we can get warnings in the MVC view/ partial view / layout page.

The name ‘ViewBag’ does not exist in the current context

‘System.Web.WebPages.Html.HtmlHelper’ does not contain a definition for ‘ActionLink’ …

‘System.Web.WebPages.Html.HtmlHelper’ does not contain a definition for ‘AntiForgeryToken’ …

These are due to wrong version in the config file. To fix this we need to update the version of the few things and reopen the project.

Here are few things which I have updated:

<add key="webpages:Version" value="2.0.0.0" />
<add key="webpages:Version" value="3.0.0.0" />
<dependentAssembly>
  <assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.Helpers" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />
  <bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-2.0.0.0" newVersion="2.0.0.0" />
</dependentAssembly>
<dependentAssembly>
  <assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.Mvc" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />
  <bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-4.0.0.0" newVersion="4.0.0.0" />
