Hello,

I have a message in my windows 10 check update of SQL 2019 service pack which i posted it's image below.

User generated image
I have sql 2017, do I need this service pack?
If I do, how can successfully install this update?
If I do not need this update, how can delete this continuous windows update check?

Thank you very much.

>> I have sql 2017, do I need this service pack?

I doubt that you have SQL Server 2016 along with SQL Server Tools 2017(SSMS 2017) installed in your Server.
If you don't have SQL Server 2016, Windows update won't push you to install Service Pack for SQL Server 2016.

In SSMS, kindly run
SELECT @@VERSION

Open in new window

to confirm this..
If you have SQL Server 2016, then I would recommend you to install SP2 for SQL Server 2016 and the above prompting of Windows update will go away.

If you don't want to install SP2 for SQL Server 2016, then try downloading KB4458842 directly and install with "Run as Administrator" option to get it fixed out..

Exported the list from SQL services and there is no SQL 2016:

NAME								STATE	START MODE					LOG ON AS					PROCESS ID	SERVICE TYPE
-------------------------------------------------------	-------	-----------------------------------------	---------------------------------------		-------------	-------------------
SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS2017)					Running	Automatic					NT Service\MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS2017			6456		SQL Server
SQL Full-text Filter Daemon Launcher (SQLEXPRESS2017)	Running	Manual						NT Service\MSSQLFDLauncher$SQLEXPRESS2017	6348
SQL Server Launchpad (SQLEXPRESS2017)			Running	Automatic					NT Service\MSSQLLaunchpad$SQLEXPRESS2017	4296	
SQL Server Agent (SQLEXPRESS2017)				Stopped	Other (Boot, System, Disabled or Unknown)	NT AUTHORITY\NETWORKSERVICE			0		SQL Agent
SQL Server Browser						Stopped	Other (Boot, System, Disabled or Unknown)	NT AUTHORITY\LOCALSERVICE			0

Open in new window

If that is the case, then please go ahead and uninstall SQL Server 2016 completely.

That’s it? Ok, will do.
Sure, update the status once SQL Server 2016 is uninstalled out..

I haven gone to the office yet but will do.

What do u mean “update the status once SQL Server 2016 is ”?
Okay, what I meant is update me whether those Windows update was not shown after uninstalling SQL Server 2016 from your Server..
Ideally, uninstalling and restarting the Server should not display that update again..
