I have a SQL 2012 at a site and I need to get in with management. In the past with 2008 or 2012 I would have to re-run the initial installer, and then choose to "add features" and then choose Tools. Well, after a quick google for the download I came across SSMS 2016 - which is supposed to work with 2008-2016 versions, and is a standalone installer. Awesome!

Installing:
%20(172.16.0.140)%20-%20Remote%20Desktop%20Connection%20Manager%20v2.7.png "Image: //static.spiceworks.com/shared/post/0017/6285/2016-06-02 08_23_36-172.16.0.140 (VEEAM) (172.16.0.140) - Remote Desktop Connection Manager v2.7.png")
And then, I get this generic error.
%20(172.16.0.140)%20-%20Remote%20Desktop%20Connection%20Manager%20v2.7.png "Image: //static.spiceworks.com/shared/post/0017/6287/2016-06-02 08_27_28-172.16.0.140 (VEEAM) (172.16.0.140) - Remote Desktop Connection Manager v2.7.png")
Any ideas? The log file is a lot of gibberish - here is the tail end of it
