I am struggling since yesterday regarding the error, first my SSMS expired for some reason & i was not able to get it working. I was not abel to unstall all the soofware related to SQL Server & it shared components, I was removing it successfully & i was getting the same error after reinstalling MS Sql server 2008 r2 express & SSMS you trial version has expired.

At last i messed up everything by forcing MS SQL SERVER & its component when i removed it with CClearner as suggested in one of the article.

An now i am not able to install any version of MS SQL Server whether it be SQL Server 2008, MS SQL SERVER 2008 Express or MS SQL SERVER 2008 Re Express edition i get following message for all the version as show in image below\

enter image description here

I am not sure what to do either i reinstall windows 7 or try to search further for solution which i would prefer as i had several software installed on my system & it will take me day or so to install all software.

I would appreciate help regarding this

  • I think you are still confused between SQL Server 2008 and SQL Server 2008 R2. They are NOT the same! Commented Nov 19, 2012 at 15:19

Windows Vista Service Pack 1 is actually not supported by SQL Server 2008 R2. In addition to my multiple suggestions to really clean 2008 R2 off your system (again see instructions here and here), I strongly recommend you install Service Pack 2 before trying again. If you're going to completely reinstall your OS, you might consider Windows 7 which has a longer lifetime and will continue to support more modern versions of SQL Server.

Have you looked at: http://www.headcrash.us/blog/2010/11/sql-management-studio-express-install-fails-with-exception/

Issue: When installing SQL Server Management Studio on top of an existing SQL Server 2008 or SQL Server 2008 R2 installation, the setup program may fail with the following .NET Framework exception, even if the .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.0 is already installed on the target machine:

Resolution: Resolution

Delete the offending user.config file in the following directory:

C:\[UserAccountName]\AppData\Microsoft_Corporation\
LandingPage.exe_StrongName_ryspccglaxmt4nhllj5z3thycltsvyyx\10.0.0.0\

Restart the installer and note that the deleted configuration file will be recreated with corrected settings for the System.Configuration assembly’s version number.

  • It might be a hidden file, you can check your hidden file view settings by opening up any explorer window (my computer), hitting ALT to bring u the menu, tools, folder options, view, 'show hidden files', OK. If it is hidden, that'll let you see it. Didn't Aaron have you download SSMS 2012? Have you tried that? Commented Nov 19, 2012 at 7:52

    No, don't completely reinstall your OS. Just remove SQL Server completely (not using CCLeaner). As I commented in my other answer, I give instructions in this link which have helped countless other users. Commented Nov 19, 2012 at 15:32

Unfortunately I had to reinstall my OS (windows 7) as nothing seemed to work for me, I tried almost every option i could find on web for two days. Finally i installed windows 7 Professional OEM, Updated it with latest updates from Microsoft including Service Packs. After this i had no issues installing MS SQL SERVER 2008 R2 Express edition (with Management Tools).

I think the culprit was CCleanersoftware which i used to fix registry & it also deleted some temp files which i could not get back, I restored my system to last working condition which didn't even fix the solution. Simply fixing one problem gave rise to another problem. I never had any issue with MS SQL SERVER Installation since i started using it in 1998.

I am sure CCleaner started trouble after i used clean option to clear temporary files which MS SQL SERVER could not find after i tried to reinstall it.

I learned my lesson hard way, Will never use any such software to fix issues.

  • So you reinstalled Windows Vista SP1, and then everything just magically worked? Commented Nov 20, 2012 at 12:38
  • No, had to do a fresh installation of windows 7 OS & then i installed other software including Service Packs required for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 express.
