Hello,
On my laptop in ODBC console I see 3 SQL drivers installed:

The only driver that I need is SQL Server Native Client 11.0.
I have to un-install 2 other drivers.
In 'Un-install' feature I see the following:
19622-un-install.png

My question: how could I know which apps in Un-install console correspond to 2 drivers that I want to remove.
Thanks

    • Dan and etc.
    • I still can't get to database server to verify our assumption about change cipher ..
    • Someone suggested that similar change in cipher suggested by the article could be done on client side. I do have admin privilege on client hence I could do it. I'd like to verify that I'm going right direction ..
    • My question: do you know if it's possible to do similar changes like another cipher or etc. on client? Do you know how to do it?

    Thanks

    Unfortunately changes suggested in article https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4557473/errors-when-applications-try-to-connect-to-sql-server-in-windows did not help.
    I am having the same issue as before

    Folks,
    I just realized that the issue I'm having with connection is caused by the change our IT did in Group policy for Win 7 for security reason.
    Based on that I assume that all my attempts to fix it using some workarounds would be useless.
    I am still confused why connection using ODBC works fine … How this type of connection could 'disregard' Group policy.
    Anyway … do you think I should stop these efforts and simply replace Win7 for Win 10?
    Thanks

    Undoubtedly, Windows 7 is very outdated by now. It certainly time to move on.
