    Hi @Swarnava Biswas

    Please check if the ODBC and OLE DB drivers exist, if so, uninstall them and uninstall the failed sql server installation, then reinstall sql server as administrator.

    This is also a possible reason for failure if you installed SSMS first.

    You can refer to this similar thread: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/1083390/sql-server-2019-installation-failed-with-206805231.
