Answer 1

Hi @Md. Baker Hossen

I need MS SQL Server 2012 Standard Free Edition

SQL Server Standard is a paid edition of SQL Server.

If you want a free edition of SQL Server, you should download SQL Server Express edition. It is a fully functional database engine that includes many of the same features as the paid editions of SQL Server, along with the limitations such as a 10 GB database size limit and a 1 GB memory limit.

Here is the download link: Microsoft® SQL Server® 2012 Service Pack 4 (SP4) Express.

Noted that 2012 is no longer supported now.

Best regards,

Cosmog

SQL Server 2012 Express Edition is available for download here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=50003 (That link was on top of the my search, but for some reason that is SP3. SP4 was the last service pack for SQL 2012. You should download and apply that service pack separately.)

SQL Server 2012 Standard Edition is not available for public download, and has never been. If you have a Visual Studio subscription, you get it that way. Else, you will need to contact your local Microsoft office or similar. Bear in mind that Standard Production is a licensed product that comes with a price tag.
