SQL Server Manager File

Question

There is absolutely no sqlservermanager15.msc file on my machine. I downloaded SQL Management Studio and SQL Server.

Answer 1

The SQL Server Manager MSC 64 bit should be located in folder C:\Windows\System32, 32 bit C:\Windows\SysWOW64; can you find the MSC there?

Answer 2

Hi @Okino Kamali Leiba ，

In common case， the location is C:\Windows\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager15.msc， Of course, You will need the corresponding SQL Server Configuration Manager version to manage that particular version of SQL Server, please confirm it.
SQL Server Configuration Manager is a Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in

You can check Computer Management if SQL Server Configuration Manager exists:

If it doesn’t exist, you can try to fix SQL Server, or you can find SQLServerManager15.msc from another server which is running on same build version of from SQL Server Setup and paste it
If anything is normal, you can use the following steps to open SQL Server Configuration Manager：
1、 use MMC

2、add snap-in:

3、go to the menu File>>Save
