I am trying to re-install SSMS after my previous installation went corrupt due to one of my corrupt hard drives (E: in the image below). Trying to uninstall the previous version does not work as it tries to find the uninstaller from that drive.
Running the installer anyways gives me the following error with an un-editable location to point to a valid drive.
"Invalid location. Please enter a valid location to proceed."
I ma pretty sure that the remnants of the older installation must be in the registry somewhere. Any idea where to look for ? Or any alternate solution to solve this problem ?
It seems that you need to remove the following registry key and that gets the new setup going.
For x64 OS :
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio"
For x86 OS :
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio"
Then try installing after a restart.
I recently had this issue and neither of the above reg keys existed.
To get past this I had to use Shift + Right click and select "Run as a different user". This allowed me to enter the appropriate admin credentials and continue with the install.

I got an issue with the tfs.
Firstly after my tfs server database got full.
So in order to solve it i cleared the table of logs from tfs server.
Now at time of clearing data one of my workspace had checkout of one file. As soon i finished my clearing data, it is giving me this error TF30063: You are not authorized to access Microsoft-IIS/8.5. at every time i try to get latest version.
Thats how i am unable to take latest.
Any help would be appritiable.
Right-click solution
Get Latest Version
Try commit again
Issue started for me when I upgraded to VS2017
For me it helps if i just click the Refresh button at the top of the Team Explorer.
After that, the message disappears and i can normally check in.
For me, it helped just to restart Visual Studio.
Clean the Cache folder on client computer. The folder path is: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\5.0\Cache.
Clean the Cache folder on Server machine. The folder path is: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Team Foundation Server 12.0\Application Tier\Web Services_tfs_data
After cleaned, on Server machine, click Start and select Run… to open the dialog box, then input iisreset.exe and click OK, wait it run completely.
I just reconnected to the team project in the Team Explorer and my commit went through, didn't have to restart anything.
I had the same issue. When I closed an open Source Control Explorer window and all the files in Visual Studio, I was able to check in.
I think i got solution, exactly got that how to do.
Do checkout that file and check in an old version of that file
and
than do take latest.
It will not generate this error again.
If you can get a copy of the file that is on TFS you can add it as a new file to TFS, and then do get latest version of the file, and then select keep local when you get the conflict error, and then you can check in the file. After that you can then get latest with no errors.
For me, Run as Administrator from Visual, It will never make this error again.
1 : Open TFS window.
2 : Click on Refresh(F5).
3: Try again to Check-in.
CLick here see Solution (Image):
I have faced same issue while check-in on TFS : You are not authorized to access Microsoft-IIS/10.0.
Using Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise with the latest update installed v15.2 (26430.4) on Windows 10 64-bit. The issue has been happening for awhile, it is not new with the latest VS update. We're using a TFS repository hosted on Visual Studio Online, i.e. our TFS repository is at COMPANY.visualstudio.com.
Frequently, when checking in, or attempting to shelve changes from the Team Explorer window in VS, I'll get an error message indicating I'm not authorized to access Microsoft-IIS/10.0. I've had reports of other developers experiencing this as well.
We've discovered the following workarounds.
Clicking the refresh button on the top of the Team Explorer window and then trying the operation again
If you have multiple workspaces, changing to a different one, then back to the original, then trying the operation again
It appears something is "stale" perhaps with the TFS connection and that refreshing it prevents the error message.
Hitting the refresh button over the Team explorer, resolved the issue.
I had a locked item. When I excluded/undo the locked item it went through.
Refresh TFS not worked for me
In my case the error disappear restarting Visual Studio
or me, it helped just to restart Visual Studio.
Not sure if anyone has came across this problem but any help is greatly appreciated.
I have SSMS 18.0 Preview 4 installed on my local machine. Whenever I am trying to install any new released version of SSMS I get below error.
Error: The Generally Available (GA) version of SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) v18.0 cannot be installed because a pre-release version of SSMS is installed on your computer. Uninstall the pre-release version of SSMS from 'Add/Remove Programs' in the Control Panel and run SSMS setup again.
SO i followed the Error and completely removed Preview version. And when i am running new SSMS set up file it still showing same error though i do not have Preview version installed on. I restarted machine after uninstall as well.
Though in error image it says set up is blocked but when i run the SSMS 18 prview 4 it doesn't give me this error and take me to install click.
Any thoughts or solution will highly helpful.
Thank you.
If you encounter this error with the reason being "ssms is currently running", check the file name of the setup exe. If it's ssms.exe, rename it to anything else, I suspect the setup is detecting itself as being management studio based on file name. This worked for me.
Just FYI... This tool helped me to remove the SSMS for SSAS and SSRS which wasn't showing up during regular uninstall.
Tried the MS removal tool and it was showing 4 different SSMS which i uninstalled and finally i was able to install SSMS 18.4.

In my case, I was getting the error "SSMSCurrentlyRunning = SSMS is currently running. Please close any open instances of SSMS and run this installer again."
I downloaded the file again and it worked.
I had this problem, reinstalled version 18 public preview 7 on https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2019/03/01/sql-server-management-studio-18-0-public-preview-7-released/
and then uninstalled and installed the updated version.
On Windows 10, I've uninstalled a corrupt installation of the above, but when I try to reinstall, I keep getting errors. The uninstall has left folders and files behind in both the Program Files and Program Files (x86) folders. I've used CCleaner to tidy up the registry, but still getting errors, the latest of which is:
Error code 0x800F081F
I also did a system restore, but the folders and files are still present.
I went to MS support and got the following suggestion:
"To fix the error codes for Windows 10, follow these steps:
Download the Windows Media Creation tool, and create an ISO image locally, or create an image for the version of Windows that you have installed."
Problem is, when I run this tool, it wants to completely reinstall Windows, instead of giving me the option to create a disc image.
Any ideas on how I can clean up the corrupt the SQL Server Express installation and start over?
Thanks in advance,
Allan
I'm getting an error when trying to install sharepoint 2010 on the server (windows server 2008 R2 64bit). The prerequisites installed fine, any ideas what this means?
BEX64 event means a problem with DEP, Data Execution Prevention, or buffer overflow.
It's surely a problem in the downloaded software. You can try to turn off DEP temporary.
I was having the same issue. I tried the install on 5 different servers and got the same result so it wasn't a problem on the server - it seems to be a corrupt download file on the MS Volume Licensing site. When I ran the download using the download manager instead of the web browser download, it kept saying the file was corrupted after the download finished (tried this a few times with the same result). My solution was to download the software from the Trial download site, then use the key I had from the VL download.
The URL for the trial is here
I spent weeks trying to get this to work. And it turned out to be group policy not allowing me to install. So in case that helps anyone else with the same issue.
Attempt the install, then check the windows event viewer and look for any software warnings.
Start -> Search for "Event Viewer" -> Windows Logs -> Application,
Look for an error with a yellow Esclamation mark in a triangle that occored around the same time as the install. And see why it didn't let you install.
Mine said this:

I faced the same problem while installing office on my PC.
After all possibility I found that there is existing Microsoft Office folder inside Program files (C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office) I simply deleted that folder and tried to installed again its work for me.
I have been running SQL Server 2005 Express Management Studio ("SSMSE"), and I now have a need to install the full version of Management Studio ("SSMS"). This is a known hassle, but I've not found a comprehensive way to carry it out.
At first, I uninstalled SSMSE, and then ran SqlRun_Tools.msi to install the toolset. I got this error message:
A component that you have specified in the ADD_LOCAL property is already
installed. To upgrade the existing component, refer to the template.ini
and set the UPGRADE property to the name of the component.
I had no idea what template.ini was. So I looked around, and decided to uninstall the rest of the minimal installation of SQL Server 2005 Express on my computer by following Microsoft's advice in KB 909967, "How to uninstall an instance of SQL Server 2005 manually." That bit was very successful.
But when I attempted to run SqlRun_Tools.msi again, I faced this mess when the installer was "Preparing Installation Wizard":
The setup has encountered an unexpected error in datastore. The action
is SetDialogs. The error is : Source File Name:
...\datastorecachexmlschema.cpp
**** Compiler Timestamp: Fri Jul 29 01:13:50 2005
**** Function Name: DataStoreCacheXMLSchema::initScopeRecord*****Sour...
(but replace the asterisks with box chars, which were probably CR-LF's in the original message)
This is very frustrating. Does anybody have any advice for installing the full version of SSMS over top of SSMSE? Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!
I have also installed SQL Management Studio before just using the SqlRun_Tools.msi package without any problems but I think if you have previously had any other SQL Server 2005 components installed then you will need to install the Setup Support Files first as this is probably what sets up the component installation sequence. This can be done either by installing from the SQL Server installation media or by running the sqlsupport.msi file as described in the Microsoft KB article.
I resolve this problem
Steps
Go to Add\remove program
unstall SQL server browser
Install support files from CD
Install SQL_Tools.MSI
Well, I roughly found out what the problem was, based on a somewhat cryptic resolution mentioned across a few different forums. This solution suggested that I needed to install Setup Support Files. Maybe it was reinstall, since I removed something with the same name when uninstalling SQL2K5 Express. I'm not sure if they were the same files, between the full version and the Express Edition.
I had tried reinstalling SQLXML4, the Native Client, and MSXML6 just to see if I could get beyond the error involving datastorecachexmlschema.cpp, and each time, I got the same error again. But I tried the technique mentioned in the above link, and it worked perfectly.
Basically, you insert the CD and run just the first part of the installation process, which installs the installation tools, including Setup Support Files. Then you cancel the rest of the installation process, and run SqlRun_Tools.msi instead.
I got great results when upgrading 2008 express to 2008 developer by (running setup) first going to Maintenance->Upgrade Edition, and then (since Management Tools etc was still "express" and I mainly needed the Sql Profiler) I also did a complete "new" installation (Installation->"New installation or add features.."), selecting the existing instance and then selecting all features.
No uninstall or command line necessary.
Behaved the same afterwards, just with new features.
