My PC is running Windows 10 and I am unable to install SQL 2012. Do you have any suggestions?

If your PC is running Windows 10 and you are unable to install SQL 2012, try the following steps:

1. Type "Windows Features" in the Windows 10 Search bar and select Turn Windows features on or off.

 

2. If .NET Framework 3.5 is unchecked, add a check, and click OK.

3. Wait for Windows Update to install components. When finished, reboot your PC.

4. Delete all components of SQL or DL-Windows that may have been previously installed.

5. Run a command prompt (CMD) as administrator and run SFC /SCANNOW.

 

6. When finished, reboot your PC again and install SQL 2012.
