I have reset/formatted the system, then I installed Visual Studio 2019 and SQL Server 2019, but I am not able to connection SQL Server. Then I followed this link
https://www.mytecbits.com/microsoft/sql-server/where-is-sql-server-configuration-manager
But in step 3: SQL Server Configuration manager /SQLServerManager15.msc not able find in add or Remove Snap-ins popup window in my system.
What I should do?
In Visual Studio, go to View, Server Explorer, Data Connections. You can see existing connections there.
Or you can create a new connection. If MSSQL is properly installed then you can put in localhost for the server name and connect.

Trying to install Sitecore 7.1 on local machine but getting an error while attempting to connect to SQL Server. If I browse for a Database Server nothing comes up in the list. I have SQL Server 2012 installed and several databases that were created from Visual Studio. What am I missing to make the connection?
For some it may be a case of the SQL Server Service has stopped running. To turn it back on:
Open up Sql Server Configuration Manager.
Select SQL Server Services in the tree view on the left
In the Context Window on the right check to see if your SQL server service is turned off.
If it is right click and click start.
I have downloaded and installed SQL Server 2014 Express
(from this site: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/server-cloud/products/sql-server-editions/sql-server-express.aspx#Installation_Options).
The problem is that I can't connect/find my local DB server, and I can't develop DB on my local PC. How can I reach my local server?
My system consists of Windows 8.1 (no Pro or Enterprise editions) 64 bits
Checking the configuration of SQL Server with SQL Server 2014 Configuration Manager tool, I see an empty list selecting "SQL Server Services" from the tree at the left. Below you can find a screenshot.
In the Windows Services list, there is just only one service: "SQL Server VSS Writer"
EDIT
My installation window of SQL Server 2014 is the following:
Most probably, you didn't install any SQL Server Engine service. If no SQL Server engine is installed, no service will appear in the SQL Server Configuration Manager tool. Consider that the packages SQLManagementStudio_Architecture_Language.exe and SQLEXPR_Architecture_Language.exe, available in the Microsoft site contain, respectively only the Management Studio GUI Tools and the SQL Server engine.
If you want to have a full featured SQL Server installation, with the database engine and Management Studio, download the installer file of SQL Server with Advanced Services.
Moreover, to have a sample database in order to perform some local tests, use the Adventure Works database.
Considering the package of SQL Server with Advanced Services, at the beginning at the installation you should see something like this (the screenshot below is about SQL Server 2008 Express, but the feature selection is very similar). The checkbox next to "Database Engine Services" must be checked. In the next steps, you will be able to configure the instance settings and other options.
Execute again the installation process and select the database engine services in the feature selection step. At the end of the installation, you should be able to see the SQL Server services in the SQL Server Configuration Manager.
I downloaded a different installer "SQL Server 2014 Express with Advanced Services" and found Instance Features in it. Thanks for Alberto Solano's answer, it was really helpful.
My first installer was "SQL Server 2014 Express". It installed only SQL Management Studio and tools without Instance features. After installation "SQL Server 2014 Express with Advanced Services" my LocalDB is now alive!!!
I have noticed that after installation of SQL server 2012 express on Windows 10 you must install ENU\x64\SqlLocalDB.MSI from official Microsoft download site. After that, you could run SqlLocalDB.exe.
Just download and install LocalDB 64BIT\SqlLocalDB.msi can also solve this problem. You don't really need to uninstall and reinstall SQL Server 2014 Express with Advanced Services.
Also, if you just installed localDB, you won't see the instance in the configuration manager. You would need to initiate it first, and then connect to it using server name (localdb)\mssqllocaldb.

I faced the same issue. Just download and install the SQL Server suite from the following link :http://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=42299
restart your SSMS and you should be able to "Register Local Servers" via right-click on "Local Servers Groups", select "tasks", click "register local servers"
I have installed the Sql server 2008 express edition with tools. After Installing sql server 2008 and sql server management studio. When i open the sql management studio it shows a window, Connect to server. Here I got already filled boxes like that:
Server type: Database Engine
Sever name: (local)
Authentication: Windows Authentication
When i click on the Connect button it displays an error message box, and nothing will be created. What can i do. Would someone help me to fix it.
Open run--> CMD
execute this code : NET START MSSQLSERVER for default instance and NET START MSSQL$<INSTANCENAME> for named instance.
I agree with user2196728, you should be able to connect using the SA account specified during installation. At that point you should be able to setup an account using your domain account (windows authentication)
Confirm that this is turned to on (2008R2):
Click on the Start Menu.
Go to the folder Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2
Click on the folder Configuration Tools
Launch SQL Server Configuration Manager
When that loads, on the far left menu, click on SQL Server Services
You should see at least three items on the right window, probably SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS), SQL Server Agent (SQLEXPRESS), and SQL Server Browser. Right click on SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) and click Start (if it's highlighted out, that means it's running).
Then try logging into local again using Windows Authentication.
I've installed SQL Server 2005 on Windows 7. My Windows 7 installation is 64 bit, but I couldn't figure out how to get the 64 bit SQL Server so I have the 32 bit version. I installed all 4 service packs, and restarted my computer.
While SQL Server Management Studio is willing to launch, I do not have the mssqlserver service, or any other service that could be SQL Server.
How do I get the SQL Server service running so I can use SQL Server 2005 on my Windows 7 machine?
As you can see, I have no services available. I did not get any error messages when I did the install.

Stop and restart SQL Server for the parameters to take effect.
Well, I gave up, uninstalled everything, and re-installed it, this time just doing the basic install and then installing SP4. That worked.
I guess the moral of this story is just use teh last service pack available, rather than all of them one at a time.
I use Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Professional (I installed all components).
Here is what I'm trying to do. I create a new ASP.NET project. Then I open Server Explorer (View->Server Explorer), right click on Data Connections and choose Add Connection. Then I choose Microsoft SQL Server and press Continue, but the 'Server name' list is empty.
I launch Sql Server Configuration Manager and it shows that SQL Server is in running state (Agent and Browser are stopped)
Why there is no any Sql Server in Add Connection list?
--------------------------------------------------------------
I allow remote filestream for SQl Server, so no I can choose server in the list, but when I enter new database name and click Ok I get a error "sql server was not found or was not accessible"
--------------------------------------------------------------
Here is a list of installed programs with 'SQL' filter
Have you configured SQL Server to allow remote connections? By default, SQL Server Express Edition and SQL Server Developer Edition do not allow remote connections.
For SQL Server 2005:
How to configure SQL Server 2005 to allow remote connections
For SQL Server 2008:
From start menu of SQL Server 2008, run SQL Server Configuration Manager.
From left side view of SQL Server Configuration Manager, expand SQL Server Network Configuration.
In the right view, you will see the list of SQL Server protocols. By default only Shared Memory is enabled. Enable the other protocols to get your SQL server to accept connections over the network.
Your problem appears to be that you have more than one SQL Server instance installed locally. You will need to use the fully qualified name.
