I mean it, I've had a bad day 😉 ... seriously, I want to uninstall SQL Server and re-install it ... but when I click the uninstall program in teh SQL folder, it asks "Are you sure you want to remove Quicken?" Sheesh! How'd THAT get in there? I need to uninstall this sucker to reinstall it as the destop version to program without a server. I'd be real grateful if anyone scould explain how this came about, and how to uninstall this sucker. Thanks.

I've seen similar stuff - I think the MSI's guid's get mixed somehow and it's downhill from there. I've worked through it before, but not with any kind of reproduceable formula! You might try reinstalling Quicken and/or uninstalling, see if that helps.

I don't have Quicken but did you happen to install after SQL Server?
Check the Registry and see if the SQL Guid looks ok. Here is what mine looks like
