Description
Release Type: Official Release
Version: Xenko Launcher 3.0.1
Platform(s): Windows
Describe the bug
Because Xenko Launcher doesn't check for disablePackageSources in NuGet.conf, if the xenko nuget packages are disabled, the xenko launcher will think it's offline and won't be able to connect to the internet to download the xenko builds from the internet
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- open NuGet.config in %APPDATA%\NuGet\NuGet.config
- add these lines in configuration
<disabledPackageSources>
<add key="Xenko" value="true" />
<add key="Xenko Dev" value="true" />
</disabledPackageSources>
- The Xenko launcher cannot connect and download xenko builds
Expected behavior
The launcher should check if the xenko package are disabled and automatically enable them, or ask the user the authorization to enable them

Research direction
Start with the Xenko Launcher’s connectivity and package-source handling, using %APPDATA%\NuGet\NuGet.config and the disabledPackageSources reproduction described here. Verify how disabled Xenko sources are treated, then confirm the launcher can download builds or clearly asks for authorization to re-enable them.
