Can not run SSMS 2012 as administrator error:"application can not start" ?

  • When i tried to run SSMS 2012 as administrator it gives the error "application can not start". I am using windows 8 64 bit and sql server 2012.

    Actually yesterday i tried to install ssms 2005 side by side installation but i stopped the installation in the middle as it needed a feature to complete installation so i stopped it. Now i want to access SSMS 2012 as administrator as i have to access integration server which prompt me to access it as administrator which lead me to run SSMS 2012 as administrator.

    Any help to resolve this problem will be appreciated.

  • Looks like corrupt system files for me.

    You might want to run the setup.exe for SQL 2012 and try to repair the instance.

  • Already tried to repair instance and also uninstalled the SSMS 2012 then again reinstalled it but still same error
