如何使我的连接字符串在 C# 中通用，也就是如何使它对我的应用程序的每个用户都可用？

Question

Ok, so i am doing my final project for high school in C#. I had to include database for best grade. My proffesor says she can't start my program because she can't read my database file on her PC. I know that my connection string is using my pc info instead of hers. So how do i make that connection string usable on her PC too? Picture of my Connection string. I just want my app to be usable for every PC where it is started on.

Here is my connection string if you can't view picture: Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source="C:\Users\matij\Desktop\Maturski rad\Maturski rad\bin\Debug\NormaBaza.accdb"

Use Environment.SpecialFolder Enum instead of hard coded paths.

Something like this:

var localAppData = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.LocalApplicationData);
connection.ConnectionString = $"Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=\"{localAppdata}\MyAppName\MyDb.accdb\"";
