SQL server Installation Problem on Windows 10 (Windows is installed in MacBook)

Hello,

The SQL server cannot be installed in windows 10, which is on MacBook.

I tried many times, but I was unsuccessful.

The error is:

The following error has occurred:

The system cannot find the path specified

    Hi Rouzbeh_Talebi -- Have you checked the contents of the setup bootstrap logs?  They are typically located in directory: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\150\Setup Bootstrap\Log\<folder with date/time stamp>\Detail.txt.

     

    Towards the bottom of that file will be a more verbose error message.  A common cause of the error you noted below is lack of permissions.

      Thanks, Bake

      I checked the content but I had no idea.

       

      I could not attach .txt file here to show you.

      I really need to install SQL Server

        Hi Rouzbeh_Talebi --  Ok, no problem.  Are you able to simply copy and paste the contents of the file into the forum post?
