I’m troubleshooting why this labelling software Bartender I’m using on a Server 2019 machine can’t connect to a SQL Server 2019 database running on the same machine using the up-to-date recommended OLE DB DRIVER (MSOLEDBSQL), but only using the deprecated OL DB PROVIDER (SQLOLEDB).

I created a blank .udl file to initiate the data link properties menu to show the list of the OLE DB providers and select the up to date driver

I have updated MSOLEDBSQL to the latest version but am not sure what other solutions I can try.

EDIT: Attempted to directly type the server name and received an error. Pictured:
