    Hi @Hieu ,

    As the error message states, are you using a compressed drive?

    Here's a blog post that goes through this specific error:

    Best regards,

    Hi @Hieu ,

    Please check if Microsoft SQL Server folder is compressed, if it is then Uncompressing it as Leon mentioned.

    If you got the same error then try to change the directory installation to any directory which is not compressed . Then please share us the result.
