Greetings!
I have tried installing both SQL Server 2014 Developer Edition and then Enterprise Edition on my Windows 10 laptop. For what it's worth, I had already installed a SQL Server 2016 Management Studio CTP, but I don't think that's the problem.
I tried installing Dev Edition using custom accounts and passwords for services first and then tried using only default accounts which I could change later.
The installation attempts result in a hung install, as seen in the following screenshot, but the installation attempts don't always hang exactly here. Now I have partially installed components but not a successful installation. The error information hasn't been very useful.
Do you have any suggested remedies? I would be very grateful.
Thank you,
George SQUILLACE (S-Q-L is in the name)
