Hi,Ammar khan
Please try to launch SSMS using the following path:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 20\Common7\IDE\Ssms.exe".
If the launch panel still appears as above, please try reinstalling.
- Make sure “C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 20” does not exist (if it does, the delete it).
- Delete the registry key by running from an elevated cmd prompt: reg DELETE “HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio” /reg:32
- Restart the computer
- Temporarily disable any antivirus software and enable it after SSMS installed.
- If you encounter installation issues, please check the SSMS installation log located in the SsmsSetup folder under %TEMP% (run via cmd command).
Best regards,
Mikey Qiao
