I had an old version of SQL Server on my laptop which I uninstalled. Now I am trying to install SQL Server 2019 Developer edition but I getting error:

"Error Code(Decimal): 2068052293 Error Description: Please install the Visual C++2017 Redistributable from https://aka.ms/vs/15/releaset..exe before running this installer."

As per suggestion given in ErrorCode, I also installed Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable from the suggested path but still same error is there.28581-0.png

    Hi @Rakesh Kumar ，

    Quote reply from this case: sql-server-2019-developer-edition-unable-to-install-sql-server-setup-exe

    Is, VC++ 2017 is successfully installed? If yes, its worth doing a restart. Sometimes certain dll's should be registered in Windows environment, which will happen after a restart. Start SQL Server 2019 again after restarting.

    Ensure both SQL Server 2019 and VC++ 2017 are installed with same user login. Hopefully you should be local admin for the login.

    Hi @Rakesh Kumar ,

    Do you run it as Administrator? Or you can add your current account into Administrator Group and then try again.
