Answer 1

If you are using a command line ( CMD, Powershell, bash etc ) you can easily type the following to update into the latest version:

dotnet tool update --global dotnet-ef

If you want to update into a very specific version do the following:

dotnet tool update --global dotnet-ef --version VERSION_NUMBER

Example:

dotnet tool update --global dotnet-ef --version 3.1.0
