title: migrate.exe could not load entityframework
body: <p>I'm trying to use migrate.exe locally before setting it up on my build server, but I can't even run the help command <code>/?</code> without getting the error</p>
  
  <pre><code>System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 
  'EntityFramework, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'
  or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've been browsing around for solutions, coming across <a href="https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/data/jj618307.aspx">Microsoft's migrate.exe getting started page</a> among other things, but haven't been able to solve this.</p>
  
  <p>I've tried copying the migrate.exe file into my projects <code>/bin/Debug</code> folder alongside the project's dll and the entity framework dll, but I continue to see this error (screenshot showing it below).</p>
  
  <p>I've also verified the version of the dll for entity framework, and it is indeed <code>6.0.0.0</code>. I'm using nuget to include entity framework, and I'm currently using <code>&lt;package id="EntityFramework" version="6.1.3" targetFramework="net45" /&gt;</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Any recommendations or help is much appreciated!</p>
