Visual Studio 2017 version 15.5.2, Net Core 2.

Solution:
Check all the following three required NuGet packages are installed, https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/69983/enabling-ef-migrations-fails-with-error.html:
  • Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore
  • Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools
  • Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer
  1. Remove previously installed EntityFramework (v6.2.0) and install Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore instead.
  2.  Update all  to the newest versions

Run EntityFrameworkCore\Add-Migration again, the above error is gone, but a new error showed up:

More than one DbContext was found. Specify which one to use. Use the '-Context' parameter for PowerShell commands and the '--context' parameter for dotnet commands.

Solution:
Add-Migration MyMigrationName -context LibProgramContext
