This is the code when the button login is clicked

con.Open();
    OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand();
    OleDbDataAdapter da = new OleDbDataAdapter();
    // cmd.Connection = con;
    string login = "SELECT * FROM tbl_students WHERE Email= '" + txtEmail.Text + "' and Password '" + txtPassword.Text + "'";
    cmd = new OleDbCommand(login, con);
    
    OleDbDataReader reader;
    reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
    
    if (reader.Read() == true)
    {
                   
       MessageBox.Show("Email and Password is valid!");
    }

Answer 1

this looks like a bit size error. Try changing (force) your project from ANY cpu to x86, and re-build - see if that works.
