SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Manager Snap-in missing

  • After running virus cleaning software on my HD, I suddenly find my Enterprise Manager snap-in missing and fail to initialize. Is the MMC erased or damaged? What should I do? Reinstall SQL Server 2000 and/or repair it? Please advise. Thanks.

  • I had a similar issue and fixed it using this:

    various versions or instances of MS SQL Server

    you may hit the problem of

    ---------------------------

    Microsoft Management Console

    ---------------------------

    Snap-in failed to initialize.

        Name:<unknown>

        CLSID:{00100100-1816-11D0-8EF5-00AA0062C58F}

    To fix the problem,

    1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.

    2. Locate the following registry subkey:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\ClientSetup

    3. Right-click the ClientSetup registry subkey, point to New, and then click String Value.

    4. Rename the registry subkey that you just created SqlPath, and then press ENTER.

    5. Double-click the SqlPath registry subkey, and then type C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools in the Value data box.

    6. Click OK, and then close Registry Editor.

    7. Click Start, click Run, type regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\sqlmmc.dll", and then click OK.
