Good morning all,

I need to download SQL 2019 today in order to finish up an assignment.

I followed the resource my school gave me, but it says to put in a product key, but I'm not finding that anywhere. Do you know where it could be?

It was in the description when I downloaded Visio before, so I figured it would be the same.

Any help at all would be appreciated.

Thanks

    You downloaded the trial. You need to download the developer edition. The current version is 2022.

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/sql-server/sql-server-downloads

    ms removed links to 2019, but if you need this version, I think this works

    says to put in a product key

    In the SQL Server Developer Edition the product key is integrated in the installer = prepidded, no need to enter a product key.

    If you have to enter, then you used the wrong product/installer, as Bruce wrote.
