I think your query should be like this
UPDATE AdminInformation SET PWD='{1}' where ClientID='{0}'
You started your WHERE clause before your SET
UPDATE:
Try changing
Dim adapt As New SqlCeDataAdapter(String.Format("UPDATE AdminInformation where ClientID='{0}' SET PWD='{1}'", ci.ClientID, ci.Password), con)
into this
Dim cmd As New SqlCeCommand(String.Format("UPDATE AdminInformation SET PWD='{1}' where ClientID='{0}'", ci.ClientID, ci.Password), con)
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
