SqlLocalDb Versions - Windows API call RegGetValueW returned error code

March 28, 2020 less than 1 minute read

I’ve met this error when I check the version of SQL Server LocalDb in my machine.

>sqllocaldb.exe versions

Error:

When I check the registry.

1. Current version

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL13E.LOCALDB\MSSQLServer\CurrentVersion

1. Installed version

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server Local DB\Installed Versions

The two versions are inconsistent.

When I change the installed version folder name from “13.0” to “13.1”, the problem is solved.

Check the SQL Local Db version again in cmd, the version is correctly displayed.
