Visual Studio 2017 upgraded to SDK 2.1.101, since then getting the following error whenever I try to run dotnet ef migrations add (Dotnet ef seems to work fine and doesn't throw an error):

Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.DotNet.PlatformAbstractions, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=adb9793829ddae60' or one of its dependencies.

Right now, this tool works under SDK 1.0. You can download ".NET Core SDK 1.1.8" from here: https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/all. Of course, you can also have SDK 2.0 installed.

I should probably mention this somewhere in the README. I was planing to update it, but faced some related problems.

Actually I had 1.1.8 installed, and my solution was working fine till yesterday. I just realized that I changed one of the referenced projects to netstandard2.0 and upgraded the Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.DataAnnotations package to 2.0.3 from 2.0.0. Further, in my migrations project which targets net47, I updated Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting.Abstractions to 2.0.2 from 2.0.1. If I revert the Data Annotations and the hosting abstractions packages to the original, it works fine. Without changing the SDK (which is currently at 2.1.101).
