SSMS 22 will be used in this example.

Finding Connection Name:
Open SQL Server Management Studio 22
On the connection screen use "(LocalDB)\CV25" in the Server Name
Set the Authentication to Windows Authentication
Select Connect and then you should see on the left side of the screen a list folders
Expand the that says Databases and you will see list of database tables.
The one we need to find is the one that ends in "report.mdf."
It will usually start with "CV-C:\" and the end will have the "report.mdf" at the end. My example does don’t have the "CV-C:\" as it was created by hand and not CV.
Right Click on the one ending in "report.mdf" and select properties

Open the Engineering Sync Desktop App and select Configure.
In the configure window select the checkbox for "Custom DB Name" and a text entry will appear
Paste the name you copied from the field in SSMS

If this button is missing in your CV instances. Close CV and Open the ESD back up select config and the select the "Configure CV" button. Repeat Testing Connection steps and skip this.
