Cannot find one or more components. Please reinstall the application.

I unstalled all the C++ redistributables, repaired the Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 Shell (Isolated) and again installed the redistributables but no success found.

This error message pops up when I try to open Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 2018.

I tried in every single possible way. Also reinstalled SQL Server and also the SSMS multiple times. They were installed without any error.

What should I do now?

  • Aside... _Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 2018_ is not actually a thing. Did you mean _SQL Server Management Studio 18_? – AlwaysLearning Jul 03 '22 at 08:59

In my case I found out that this problem is related to the Windows insider program.

The following page helped me solve this problem:

KB5014959 seems to break ssms 18.12.1 and ssms 19. I uninstall it, but it keeps coming back and ssms still does not work. What is going on with Windows 11 and SSMS?

It seemed like it was working before, but the stupid update doesn't let me run SSMS, even if I uninstall it and pause updates, it still comes back, or maybe it doesn't actually uninstall like it says it does.
