Could not load file or assembly DevExpress.Persistent.BaseImpl.EF.v20.2

When I run my Winforms XAF Entity Framework application in VS 2019 IDE

Given I have System.IO.FileNotFound exception enabled in Common Language Runtime Exceptions.

I get this run time error.

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: 'Could not load file or assembly 'DevExpress.Persistent.BaseImpl.EF.v20.2, Version=20.2.5.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b88d1754d700e49a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.'

I have encountered this error before and reported to Dev Express here but the issue went away.

The source code is

    private static bool CheckMigrationVersionAndAskToUpgradeIfNeeded()
    {
        try
        {
            using (var db = new MigrationDbContext())
            {
                var compatible = db.Database.CompatibleWithModel(false);
                if (!compatible) compatible = RunMigrationsIfPresent(db);
                return compatible;
            }
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            var s = string.Format("Problem in MigrateIfNeeded \r\n" + ex);
            MessageBox.Show(s);
            return false;
        }
    }

Entity Framework is v6.4.4

Target framework is .Net Framework 4.7.2

From the call stack it seems that GetTypeByName is resolving to the wrong type. How do I fix that?
