How to fix the entity framework problem with System.Data.Entity.Migrations.Utilities.DomainDispatcher not found.

After much searching and repair, I could not find a good way – the error does seem to be documented on Github – so at least there’s that.

My solution to the problem, after trying several other ways, was to downgrade Visual Studio as described here – note – you really do have to run all of the cleanup tools.

UPDATE ON 09/21/2018 – this fixes the problem – thank you Stack Overflow User.

Update on 05/02/2019 – this affects Visual Studio 2019 as well – one thing to note, this is the path to the new file
C:\Users\WarHorse\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\16.0_181cd91f

Copy and paste this

<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity name=”System.Management.Automation” publicKeyToken=”31bf3856ad364e35″ />
<bindingRedirect oldVersion=”0.0.0.0-3.0.0.0″ newVersion=”3.0.0.0″/>
<publisherPolicy apply=”no” />
