Hello,
I need to install SQL Server 2014 business intelligence with SP1 for educational purposes. I have uninstalled the previously installed instance of SQL Server to install a new and clean BI version. To uninstall the previous version I used IObit uninstaller which also deletes all remaining folders and registers.
When I try to boot the setup.exe of the BI version I get an empty error box. I get the same when trying to install other versions of SQL server.
After doing some research about this error, I found that capsol.exe should be able to resolve the issue. So I tried the command:
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\capsol.exe -machine -reset
and
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\capsol.exe -machine -reset
unfortunately, both did not resolve the issue. I tried every other possible solution on the source thread (SQL Server 2008 R2 setup.exe will not run) without success.
Please help me to solve this problem
Kind regards, Wessel
