Hi All,

For a Project, i have installed SQL Server 2019 Express. Here are the Screenshot from the Installation.

Editions and supported features of SQL Server 2019 (15.x)
SQL Server Downloads

I choose “custom” to see all the Settings

Here is where you would normally choose to place the Data on a diffrent Drive. As this is only a Test System i won’t do that.

Let’s see if we can connect

sqlcmd /?
sqlcmd -S ICESRV04\SQLEXPRESS -E -Q "Select @@Version"

Regards
Andres Bohren
