Accepted answer
Files you delete in Visual Studio go to Windows recycle bin. Unless you cleared it, your files should still be there. Just restore them and than add them to your project as existing items. You can also drag and drop them through Solution Explorer.

You can use Nugut Packages to install the Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc package, then the System.Web.Mvc .dll will be added into the project's reference.

Sir,not solved..
actual pblm is after using model in mvc EF i want to switch to enity framework with Code first approch.
in controller i got error like this
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error CS0029 Cannot implicitly convert type 'myapp.Models.Author' to 'myapp.Author' myapp

my code is given below,

BookDBContext _db = new BookDBContext();
Author author = _db.Author.Find(id);
if (author == null)
return RedirectToAction("Index");
return View("Details", author);

Author is a class in my model
and BookDBcontext is my context class.

Download it from the nuget package. Right click on your project (in solution explorer) -> Manage Nuget Package -> type your dll into the box and download.
