'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine. I am getting this in visual studio only after upgrading from 32bit office 2013 to 64bit office 16. I have already installed the 64bit database engine and my published project from IIS is working with the existing access database. I switched debug mode to x64 and remove the references to the old office and replaced them with the new office access. How can I get Visual Studio 2010 to recognize my access database created in access 2013?

What I have tried:

installing the

Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable 64bit version.

Updating the office references in the project.

Debugging in x64 mode
