SQL server configuration manager error while opening (Solved)

Not getting SQL Server configuration manager in my windows search. 

Though we've installed SQL Server & SSMS on my local system (or some other server) but on windows search not getting the "SQL server configuration manager" or "SQL Server 2019 Configuration manager".

Even when we try to open the configuration manager console from its default location I'm getting the error

Default location: C:\Windows\System32\SQLServerManager14.msc

Its showing error like this:

SQL Server Configuration Manager
—————————
Cannot connect to WMI provider. You do not have permission or the server is unreachable. Note that you can only manage SQL Server 2005 and later servers with SQL Server Configuration Manager. 


Solution:

  • Open command prompt in admin mode. 
  • Run this command "mofcomp "%programfiles(x86)%\Microsoft SQL Server\140\Shared\SqlMgmProviderXpsP2UP.mof""
  • Once it's get executed successfully, cmd will show success message something like this:

  • Now go to the default location of SQL Server configuration manager & let's try to open it, and it's opening smoothly
