Hi @Eduardo Gomez

Please check the error logs for more details.

The location by default is: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\160\Setup Bootstrap\Log

There is a summary.txt file and many subfolders created every time the Installation wizard is started. In those subfolders, we can find a Detail.txt file.

View and Read SQL Server Setup Log Files - SQL Server | Microsoft Learn

If you found error like this: There have been 256 misaligned log IOs which required falling back to synchronous IO. It is a known issue when you install SQL Server on Windows 11 and Windows Server 2022.

Please troubleshoot follow by this doc: Troubleshoot errors related to system disk sector size greater than 4 KB.

Best regards,

Cosmog Hong
