• Right click "Local DTC" under "Distributed Transaction Coordinator", and click properties.

Answer 2

This is what worked for me:

Inside SQL Server Management Studio, expand Server Objects, then Linked Server, then right click on the linked server in question and choose 'Properties.' Select the 'Server Options' page, and make sure 'Enable Promotion of Distributed Transactions' is set to 'False'

Or you can do it with T-SQL:

USE master;
EXEC sp_serveroption '<<your linked server name>>', 'remote proc transaction promotion', 'false';
