Cannot connect .NET app with MongoDB (System.MissingMethodException: Method not found:)

I am simply trying to connect my MongoDB cluster with my .NET app, but when I test my routes with swagger i get this error:

System.MissingMethodException: Method not found: 'MongoDB.Bson.GuidRepresentationMode MongoDB.Bson.BsonDefaults.get_GuidRepresentationMode()'.
   at MongoDB.Driver.MongoUrlBuilder..ctor()
   at MongoDB.Driver.MongoUrlBuilder..ctor(String url)
   at Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.MongoOptionsExtension.SanitizeConnectionStringForLogging(String connectionString)
   at Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.MongoOptionsExtension.WithConnectionString(String connectionString)
   at Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.MongoDbContextOptionsExtensions.UseMongoDB(DbContextOptionsBuilder optionsBuilder, String connectionString, String databaseName, Action1 optionsAction)

What I am trying to do is to add a simple item to my database to check my connection, and I am doing this within my Program.cs file so it does it only once.

Here are my files:

Program.cs

using backend.Data;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;
using backend.Models;
using MongoDB.Driver;

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

builder.Services.AddControllersWithViews();

var mongoDBSettings = builder.Configuration.GetSection("MongoDBSettings").Get<MongoDBSettings>() 
    ?? throw new InvalidOperationException("MongoDBSettings section is not configured");

builder.Services.Configure<MongoDBSettings>(builder.Configuration.GetSection("MongoDBSettings"));

builder.Services.AddDbContext<ApplicationDBContext>(options => 
    options.UseMongoDB(mongoDBSettings.AtlasURI, mongoDBSettings.DatabaseName));

builder.Services.AddEndpointsApiExplorer();
builder.Services.AddSwaggerGen();


var app = builder.Build();

// Configure the HTTP request pipeline.
if (app.Environment.IsDevelopment())
{
    app.UseSwagger();
    app.UseSwaggerUI();
}

app.UseHttpsRedirection();

app.MapPost("/api/test-book", async (ApplicationDBContext context) =>
{
    try
    {
        var testBook = new Book
        {
            Title = "Test Book",
            Author = "Test Author",
            Pages = 100
        };

        context.Books.Add(testBook);
        await context.SaveChangesAsync();

        return Results.Ok(new { message = "Test book added successfully", book = testBook });
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        return Results.BadRequest(new { message = $"Error adding book: {ex.Message}" });
    }
});

// You can also add a GET endpoint to verify the book was added
app.MapGet("/api/test-book", async (ApplicationDBContext context) =>
{
    var books = await context.Books.ToListAsync();
    return Results.Ok(books);
});

app.Run();

Another error i started getting on my terminal whenever running the app is
