I just Googled "SQL Express Profiler", and got loads of results saying that it doesn't come with SQL Express. What were your search terms :-D?

I have profiler and I only installed SQL Server 2012 Express with tools

I searched many combinations. And saw many responses where people claimed that it is coming with SQL Server 2014 express, but i couldn't find anything on MS official site.

really?? I already tried installing 2012 express from this file :ENU\x64\SQLEXPRADV_x64_ENU.exe( mine is 64 bit). This was the biggest file with 1.3 GB size. So I though it will have everything, but it didn't.

I could see followinf more files on MSDN. Can you ls let me know which one you installed?

ENU\x64\SQLEXPR_x64_ENU.exe

ENU\x64\SQLEXPRADV_x64_ENU.exe

ENU\x64\SQLEXPRWT_x64_ENU.exe

ENU\x64\SqlLocalDB.MSI

ENU\x64\SQLManagementStudio_x64_ENU.exe
