To add a reference to System.Web.Razor in a Windows Service project that uses MVC, follow these steps:

  1. Open your Windows Service project in Visual Studio.

  2. Right-click on the project in the Solution Explorer and select "Manage NuGet Packages..."

  3. In the NuGet Package Manager, switch to the "Browse" tab.

  4. Search for "Microsoft.AspNet.Razor" or "System.Web.Razor" and select it from the search results.

  5. Click on the "Install" button to install the package.

  6. Once the package is installed, the System.Web.Razor assembly will be added to your project.

  7. In your Windows Service code, you can now add a reference to the System.Web.Razor namespace and use its classes and functionalities.

Please note that including System.Web.Razor in a Windows Service project might not be a common practice since Razor is designed for rendering HTML views in ASP.NET applications. If you are trying to achieve something specific with Razor outside of the context of a web application, you might want to consider alternative approaches or libraries that are more suitable for your use case.
