SQL Server Configuration Manager not found

After installing SQL Server 2008, I cannot find the SQL Server Configuration Manager in Start / SQL Server 2008 / Configuration Tools menu.

What should I do to install this tool?

If you happen to be using Windows 8 and up, here's how to get to it:

The newer Microsoft SQL Server Configuration Manager is a snap-in for the Microsoft Management Console program.
It is not a stand-alone program as used in the previous versions of Microsoft Windows operating systems,
SQL Server Configuration Manager doesn’t appear as an application when running Windows 8.
To open SQL Server Configuration Manager, in the Search charm, under Apps, type:

SQLServerManager15.msc for [SQL Server 2019] or

SQLServerManager14.msc for [SQL Server 2017] or

SQLServerManager13.msc for [SQL Server 2016] or

SQLServerManager12.msc for [SQL Server 2014] or

SQLServerManager11.msc for [SQL Server 2012] or

SQLServerManager10.msc for [SQL Server 2008], and then press Enter.

Text kindly reproduced from SQL Server Configuration Manager changes in Windows 8

Detailed info from MSDN: SQL Server Configuration Manager

On windows 10 Control Panel→Administrative Tools→Computer Management

I know this is old but you can directly browse it using this paths..

SQL Server 2019 C:\Windows\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager15.msc

SQL Server 2017 C:\Windows\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager14.msc

SQL Server 2016 C:\Windows\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager13.msc

SQL Server 2014 C:\Windows\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager12.msc

SQL Server 2012 C:\Windows\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager11.msc

SQL Server 2008 C:\Windows\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager10.msc

source is from ms site https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms174212.aspx

One can also specify %systemroot% for the path of Windows directory. For example:

SQL Server 2019: %systemroot%\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager15.msc

From SQL Server 2008 Setup, you have to select "Client Tools Connectivity" to install SQL Server Configuration Manager.

This path worked for me. on a 32 bit machine.

C:\Windows\System32\mmc.exe /32 C:\Windows\system32\SQLServerManager10.msc

you need to identify sql version.

SQLServerManager15.msc for [SQL Server 2019] or

SQLServerManager14.msc for [SQL Server 2017] or

SQLServerManager13.msc for [SQL Server 2016] or

SQLServerManager12.msc for [SQL Server 2014] or

SQLServerManager11.msc for [SQL Server 2012] or

SQLServerManager10.msc for [SQL Server 2008],

Step :1) open ssms

  2) select version

  3) select above command and run in cmd with admin right.

Paste this line in folder path url in file explore: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager11.msc then press enter.
