Cannot find one or more component please reinstall the application.
also when I try to repair it, it gives me this error:
TITLE: SQL Server Setup failure.

what should I do?!
SQL server management is sharing a lot of components with visual studio, in order to use it on the same machine the painless and best option is to keep them aligned as much as possible.
Except in case you are going to connect to a newer (Azure) version of SQL-SERVER you can easily solve the situation by uninstalling the current version of SQL Server Management and installing MS-SQL Server Management 2016.
Likely also installing even a newer version will not gave issues, but using an older one will be a source of troubles and also a no-sense since the Management Studio is backward compatible with older SQL Server versions.
Start regedit.exe
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\SQL Server Management Studio
Delete 11.0_Config
Restart ssms.exe
I have Visual Studio 2013 Community and I have installed SQL Server 2014 LocalDB (not complete SQL Server). During installation of Visual Studio I had already checked data tools. When I want to add a data connection using data source:(localdb)\MSSQLlocaldb it displays an error
Could not load file or assembly Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Sdk.Sfc version v11.0.0.0 ..... bala bala".
I checked my assembly folder it already has Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Sdk.Sfc version v11.0.0.0. So what's the problem here? And I also installed SharedManagementObject.msi for SQL Server 2014 - any help?
I have no SQL Server Data Tool in Visual Studio 2013.
SSDT should be included in VS2013? Source
How can I install them?
I tried to install BI for VS 2013 but still don't have any SQL functions in VS.
Make sure Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools is checked when you install VS.
SQL tools like schema comparison are in SQL menu. SQL menu is not visible till any database project OR .scmp file OR file where its context is available is open.

Update
Got this link on MSDN:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/data/hh297027
Download latest VS2013 Update 2 through extension update or by link http://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/download-visual-studio-vs
For SSDT-BI for VS 2013 install:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42313
after installation restart Visual studio.
Lets hope, it should work then.
I don't have SQL menu, however I found it in Tools -> SQL Server
I have an error message that occurs every time I use SQL Server 2012 Management Studio to open or create a new database diagram, followed by an automatic restart of SSMS.
The error message is
Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an
indication that other memory is corrupt.
(Microsoft.VisualStudio.OLE.Interop)
Here's what I did to produce this problem:
Earlier, I had installed SQL Server 2008: via an option available when I downloaded Visual Basic Express 2010. No errors yet. I could create and edit database diagrams without problems. Then I uninstalled VB Express 2010, and installed Visual Studio 2012, only to find out that it was a trial version, which I didn't like, so I uninstalled Visual Studio 2012. I launched SSMS 2008 and tried to open a database diagram in one of my databases. I received an error that said
Specified Module cannot be Found. (MS Visual Database Tools)
I installed SQL Server 2012 with Management Studio, and then used the SSMS 2012 to try opening the database diagram. And instead of Specified module error, I got the error about attempting to read or write protected memory.
I am running Windows 7, SQL Server 2012 Express and I didn't uninstall SQL Sever 2008 Express (yet), Visual C# 2010 Express, Visual Basic 2010 Express.
EDIT: I attempted to fix this problem by applying a hotfix named SQLServer2012_RTM_CU1_kb2679368_11_0_2316_x64. It did not fix the problem. The hotfix was suggested by a user in an MSDN forum at this link: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/sqlexpress/thread/1753d7ba-f6ec-4a8e-a1c9-ded2a5b7c607
I bumped into the same issue. Mine is SQL 2012 in windows7. I was trying connect to a sql server 2014 in Windows 2012 R2.
The problem was resolved after I upgraded my SQL 2012 client to 2014.
It is interesting that it was fine to work with SQL2014 with Windows 2012 but not windows 2012 R2.
For the sake of completeness I added this answer with all steps
required to solve this issue
It is a stupid error, which can occur in nearly all sersion of SQL Server Management Studio.
Look for a machine that had SSMS installed which ist still working without any error.
Copy all files of the folder from the working machine to the faulting machine
Folder 1: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\microsoft shared\Visual Database Tools\
Folder 2: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\microsoft shared\MSDesigners8\
Start SSMS again and the error is gone
verified for 2008R2, 2012, 2014
I was used to get this message and to get the management closed ALL-THE-TIME
when I notice a pattern in the bug ( and given the message I guessed the bug was isolated when trying to deal with the diagram database objects in the memory), if I create the diagram, place a table, put the first column with pk, save, close and open the diagram again it started working...
I used to repeat this for every new table added in the diagram without saving in disk
somehow, it stopped happening maybe after some updates in the host
I hope it works for you too
I figured out the answer, thanks to another post located here. Basically, even though my visual studio 2012 install was the trial version, it seemed to cause the same problem as the visual studio described in the link. Check it for a workaround.
I recently installed Visual Studio 2010 and SQL Server 2012 on a Windows Server 2008 R2 machine - (including all updates/Service Packs).
When attempting to work on a SQL Server database from within Visual Studio, VS throws the following error:
This server version is not supported. Only servers up to Microsoft SQL
Server 2008 are supported
I recall getting this same error a while back (on a different computer) when I updated a SQL Server 2008 instance to SQL Server 2008 R2. The fix, back then, was to install (or reinstall) Visual Studio 2010 SP1.
Now that I'm receiving this error again (on a new computer), I thought it reasonable to reinstall VS SP1 just like I did a while back. However, doing so did not fix the problem.
It appears as though Visual Studio may need another update to support SQL Server 2012 instances.
For clarity, here are the steps that I did to produce the error: (using VS 2010sp1 and SQL2012)
Using VS, create a Windows Forms application
Right-click the project and choose, Add > New Item
Select "Service-based Database"
Cancel out of the "Data Source Configuration Wizard"
A Database will appear under your Project in Solution Explorer. Double-click the new database
The Database will be added to Server Explorer's list of Data Connections
In Server Explorer, open the database, right-click the Tables directory, then select "Add New Table"
The error "This server version is not supported...." is thrown
Screenshots for whatever its worth..
My question is, is there a fix for this? If so, what is it?
Maybe get SQL Server Data Tools, which work with SQL Server 2012? I believe there are some good tutorials and other materials in the Developer Training Kit. I don't think there are any tricks yet to make an older version of Visual Studio / Data Dude compatible with SQL Server 2012.
Following MSDN blog link discusses about the issue that you are facing with local SQL Server database instance in Visual Studio 2010.
Using LocalDB in Visual Studio 2010
My problem was that I couldn't get VS2012 to work right with SQL Server 2012. I installed the latter product first, but after installing VS2012 and attempting to open an existing project, my existing data file just would not work. I know the software is supposed to automatically take you through a wizard to update your database in the project, but that didn't happen, and I couldn't find a way to make it happen. I'm on the point now of getting rid of SQL Server 2012 and going back to 2008. I'd rather use the most current releases, but I can't spend any more time on configuration issues.
I tried reinstalling the SSDT as well, but kept getting the same error you mentioned Jed, this seemed to let me get around the error message:
http://forums.asp.net/t/1721552.aspx/1?Working+with+Denali+SQLEXPRESS+in+VS+11+Database+issue
This error could also occur if you use the wrong provider. A recently came across the "This server version is not supported...." error and after changing the provider from sqlClient Data Provider to SQL Server Native Client 11.0 in the connection string for the Data Source configuration the problem was solved.
For me, the error arises whenever I try creating a new database. So after unsuccessfully attempting all methods advised, I bypassed the error by clicking on "Add connection" and putting my server name in the dialog box. After adding the non-existent database name, it notifies that it can't find such database and asks whether to create it. Voila! Database created (even though server version is supposedly unsupported).
