ASP.NET Mvc Project EF Code First Enable Migrations Error

I am working PluralSight Video Tutorials on ASP.NET MVC. And i couldn't enable migrations on package console..

when i wrote enable-migrations, i am receiving this error;

More than one context type was found in the assembly 'eManager.Web'. To enable migrations for eManager.Web.Infrastructure.DepartmentDb, use Enable-Migrations -ContextTypeName eManager.Web.Infrastructure.DepartmentDb. To enable migrations for eManager.Web.Models.UsersContext, use Enable-Migrations -ContextTypeName eManager.Web.Models.UsersContext.

when i wrote Enable-Migrations -ContextTypeName eManager.Web.Infrastructure.DepartmentDb., i am receiving this error;

The context type 'eManager.Web.Infrastructure.DepartmentDb.' was not found in the assembly 'eManager.Web'.

Thanks for your help.

The solution to this problem is simple, just remove the dot (.) at the end of this statement "Enable-Migrations -ContextTypeName eManager.Web.Infrastructure.DepartmentDb." and run the package manager console again, the migration should be enabled.

The solution for the mentioned error "The context type .... was not found" is to select the correct project that holds the context type before running the enable-migration command. You can choose the correct project from the "default project" drop down at the top of Nuget manager tool window.
