Hello,

BRAND NEW to SQL Server. I was following along with a tutorial and downloaded the SSMS, however, doesn't seem like i have the configuration manager installed properly. I tried entering the credentials first prompted once SSMS was done downloading only to realize the configuration manager doesn't even appear.

I took a look at the doc that told me to head to the file location (im using windows 11) and I'm currently not seeing the files there:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/sql-server-configuration-manager?redirectedfrom=MSDN&view=sql-server-ver16

Can anyone provide sugggestions to get the file SQLServerManager16.msc properly added to my system?

Thanks!

    Right.

    • Log onto the server.
    • Click the windows logo in the bottom left corner.
    • Type S-Q-L S-e-r etc.
    • The desktop app should appear in the list.
    • Right-click and "Open File Location".
    • C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Microsoft SQL Server 2019\Configuration Tools That's where I find it, your location may differ. Also I have assumed Windows. SQL
