'oops installation initialization successful sql developer installlation message upon trying to install sql server developer 2019
I am trying to install SQL server developer 2019 edition and I get this issue. I wanted to create a SQL server for my .NET API but when I checked it needed SQL server running in service but it wasn't so when I tried to download it doesn't download, it just checks for precious downloads and then immediately shows this message
My windows specification if that helps
