Elements UWP project with NuGet will crash VS2015

**IDE:**VS 2015
Version: 9.0.97.2071
Target (If relevant): UWP
Description:

To avoid crash, I have to delete the project.lock.json file each time before I open an Elements UWP project with NuGet, which is very annoying.
I think this is not that difficult to fix?
