Visual Studio: The system cannot find the path specified


I am developing a website in ASP.NET MVC in Visual Studio. I'm trying to add a Database connection, but it gives me the error "The system cannot find the path specified".

Here's what I am doing:

The Output Window says the following:

Generated model file: Model1.edmx.
Loading metadata from the database took 00:00:01.3576925.
Generating the model took 00:00:01.3134936.

However, the Models Folder is empty and no connection strings are made. I have been trying for about an hour and nothing, deleted the .vs, bin, and obj folders, rebuilt the solution but nothing works. I appreciate any help you can provide.
