Answer 1

Hi @sd xzzx ,

Please follow the below steps to remove all components of previous installed SQL Server completely:

1. Remove all SQL Server components from 'Programs and Features'
2. Backup the registry
3. Delete the following keys in regedit:

--HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server

--HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSSQLServer

4. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall and delete all the sub-keys referencing SQL Server
5. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services and delete all the keys referencing SQL Server
6. Reboot the machine

In addition, please use an administrator account to reinstall SQL Server on your computer(Right click->run as administrator).

The same goes for SQL Management Studio 19.0.2. After uninstalling in the control panel you also need to check the registry.

Best regards,

Seeya
