    Hi @维 阿 ,

    Quote from this blog and this similar thread.

    >SQL Server isn’t supported on the ARM architecture.

    Window 11 ARM is not listed in the OS list that supported for SQL 2019 and SQL server 2017.

    Please refer to below MS documents.

    I've tried installing 2022, 2019, 2016, 2014... Get various errors...

    And of course, you can't just boot a version of Windows off an X86 VM image because they are concerned it would run too slow on your Mac Studio, M1 Ultra with 128 GB of RAM... Yeah, and I need to have this installed (Express version) and do about 20 queries per day on it for a super light app I'm trying...

    I have 2012 queued up to try..

    And I have 2014 x86 version that I can try as well..

    Thinking maybe 2008? That was a good version in its day...

    The 2016 version failed because even though I unselected installing the Azure stuff, it failed installing it anyway.. and Frankly, who cares it didn't install? Oh, Microbomb does... Sigh..

    Not tried this yet, but it might work for you:
