If you simply want to change db then you can change from connection string from app setting file or app setting from admin side.
I'm working on nop 4.5. I have 2 databases (both in ms SQL server management studio). I want to change the database from db1 to db2. Both are DBs compatible with Nop as I was working on 2 similar projects.

Thanks a lot for that. Can you please tell me where I can see the app setting file? a path for it would be great? I could not fine the app settings txt/json which was mentioned in the older versions of nop.

1. Can you check on file explorer level ?
2. Make sure your open correct project ? looks like you didn't run this project before? run it and see which screen you are seeing in browser? share screenshot here.
Thanks,

Yes, as per the Nop.Web's .csproj file, it's excluded purposely (because it should not be "published" to production, etc.)
<ItemGroup>
<!-- We copy the entire \App_Data directory. But we ignore JSON files and data protection keys -->
<Content Include="App_Data\**" CopyToPublishDirectory="PreserveNewest" Exclude="App_Data\*.json" />
<Content Remove="App_Data\*.json" />
