Hi @SimplyConphuzed ,

You made a confuse about your environment. You have a SQL 2016 (130) environment, not SQL 2019 (150) environment. Your local DB is installed from SQL server 2016 installation package not SQL 2019.
SQL 2016(130) could not compatibility SQL 2017 (140)
Please download SQL server 2019 Express setup file from this MS link. Then install SQL server 2019 version Local DB.
