Solution 1

You don't need the path: the connection string is all you need to get to the database. See here[^] for a large variety of connection strings you can use (and adapt).

Solution 3

Change your connectionString with the following and substitute "Library" database name with your database name:

string constr;
constr = "Data Source=.\\SQLEXPRESS;database=Library;Persist Security Info=False;Integrated Security=True;";
