Try to add features with an existing installation

  • Hi,

    We use SQL Server 2012 sp1.

    We want to install a feature that we did not install the first time.

    So we run the "SQL Server Installation Center" from our server.

    At the step "Setup Support Rules", we received this error:

    Rule "consistency validation for sql server registry keys" failed.

    The SQL Server registry keys from a prior installation cannot be modified.

    To continue, see SQL Server Setup documentation about how to fix registry keys.

    Do you have an idea how to fix that ?

    regards

    Try stopping all services and trying again: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/5bd40650-1169-47fb-b846-00757477732b/sql-server-2008-express-registry-error?forum=sqlsetupandupgrade
