SQL Server 2016 Express安装错误

Question

I have two disks:

• (VeraCrypt-encrypted) HDD: partition A
• SSD: partition C

Windows 10 Pro. Microsoft SQL Server Express 2016. I have changed from default partition C to A . I am getting this error when trying to install:

(For 2014 version It gives me the same error in Installation progress step).I changed to C , didn't help. I have changed to different directory (without (x86) ), didn't help. I have checked online for similar questions but still can't figure it out. I will appreciate any help.

Answer 1

This is a Microsoft Windows Installer issue and is not related to Desktop Authority. In the registry of the workstation the value data for "Program Files (x86)" may contain invalid characters

Answer 2

You cannot install it on an encrypted or compressed drive. See here .

SQL Server Setup will block installations on read-only, mapped, or compressed drives.
