I got the SQL Source Control tool to work, after downloading and installing SSMS version 19. Before the update to SQL Source Control 8, I was able to use it with SSMS 20. Maybe it will work again with SSMS 20 after I reboot my computer…?? But you can close this ticket, considered resolved for me. Although, I highly suggest fixing the SQL Source Control installer issues, should never have had issues with references in my Windows registry for a disk drive that didn't exist anymore… / comments

I got the update to install, bur SQL Source Control isn't showing up in SQL Management Studio. Any ideas on how to get it to show up so I can use it? I had to write a Powershell program to remove entries in the Registry for the D: drive. # Choose hive to search Write-Host "Program START" #$rootHive = [Microsoft.Win32.Registry]::CurrentUser.OpenSubKey("", $true) # For HKCU $rootHive = [Microsoft.Win32.Registry]::LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("", $true) # For HKLM # String to match in value names $searchString = "D:\" function Search-RegistryValuesRecursively { param( [Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey]$key, [string]$searchString ) try { if ($key -ne $null) { foreach ($valueName in $key.GetValueNames()) { if ($valueName -ne $null) { $valueData = $key.GetValue($valueName, $true) if ($valueName -like "*$searchString*") { Write-Host "Match found!" Write-Host "Deleted value: $valueName" $key.DeleteValue($valueName) } if ($valueData -like "*$searchString*") { Write-Host "Match found!" Write-Host "Key: $($key.Name)" Write-Host "Value Name: $valueName" Write-Host "Value Data: $valueData" Write-Host "-----------------------" Write-Host "Deleted value: $valueName" $key.DeleteValue($valueName) } } } foreach ($subKeyName in $key.GetSubKeyNames()) { try{ $subKey = $key.OpenSubKey($subKeyName, $true) if ($subKey) { Search-RegistryValuesRecursively -key $subKey -searchString $searchString $subKey.Close() } } catch { # Empty catch that handles when a Registry key can't be opened with Write permission } } } } catch { # Handle or ignore access denied errors $errorMessage = $_.Exception.Message Write-Warning "There was an error in the catch block. Details: $errorMessage" } } # Start searching from the root hive Search-RegistryValuesRecursively -key $rootHive -searchString $searchString $rootHive.Close() Write-Host "Program END" / comments

I found entries in my Windows registry for a D: drive, but I don’t currently have a D: drive, and my SQL Server was not installed on a D: drive. I don’t know why the RedGate installer is getting tripped up on this, but it seems like an issue with the installer’s method of searching for existing instances of SQL and RedGate tools. I’m attached a verbose RedGate installer logfile in an email response, because it was too many characters to insert in a comment, and I can't figure out how to attach it on here. ;-) I can’t install the RedGate SQL Source Control application, but I was able to force uninstall it using the “Revo Uninstaller” app. / comments

I tried installing from the MSI, and got the same error message, invalid drive D:\. SQL Source Control is not working currently, and I have tried uninstalling it, but I get an error message that doesn't give me any clue about what is wrong. / comments

Also, I don't have a D-drive on my computer, so I don't know why it's saying invalid D-Drive. [image] / comments
