    You're encountering error code -2147467259 during SQL Server 2022 installation, which typically indicates a missing file. Here are a few steps to troubleshoot:

    1. Run the installer with administrative privileges
    2. Verify file path - Check for Typo Error
    3. Check for conflicting software - Existing software might interfere with the installation
    4. Repair existing installation - If you have a previous SQL Server installation, attempt a repair using the "Maintenance" option within the SQL Server 2022 setup
