Change the path of localdb with EF Code First

Multi tool use
i'm changing the setup of an application to a clickonce application.
I'm using SQL Server Express and the EntityFramework with the code first approach.
The MDF of the database is stored at %USERPROFILE%/database.mdf. Now i have to change the location to the %USERPROFILE%/AppData/Local/Apps/ …
I tried to use this Connection string
connectionString="data source=(LocalDb)MSSQLLocalDB;initial catalog=MIADbContext;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|database.mdf"
But with this connectionstring i get an error:
System.ArgumentException: Expansion of |DataDirectory| failed while processing the connection string. Ensure that |DataDirectory| is set to a valid fully-qualified path.
I don't know why this doesn't work. any ideas to solve it?
