Once the database installation failed, it may be because the database does not match correct Windows version. We can choose to uninstall the installed program and try to reinstall it with another version.
Step 1, open control panel, choose program and function
Step 2, find all the installed programs, if it’s sqlserver2008, you need to uninstall all the programs that contain the Microsoft SQL Server 2008, as shown in the picture. If it’s sqlserver2012, then uninstall all the programs that contain Microsoft SQL Server 2012, as shown in the picture.
Step 3, is to find the corresponding installation directory and delete the folder created automatically by sqlserver. The default installation location is C:\Program Files, delete the Microsoft SQL Server folder, and also delete the corresponding C:\Program Files (x86). Microsoft SQL Server folder, at this point, the database uninstallation is complete and can be reinstalled.
