See also TF 3042 - https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188396.aspx which doesn't do the pre-allocation of space when creating a compressed backup. ...

Oracle 8i CD which is pure trash and not even mine... how the heck did that get in there :unsure:

As Jeff said, I would get a coffee and enjoy reading this:

I liked Eric's response - "get a job you bum".

So I put my MDF in a folder on the C drive called sqlserver and it has permissions to access it. If you do the same it should work.

CREATE DATABASE AdventureWorks2012

ON (FILENAME = 'c:\sqlserver\AdventureWorks2012_Data.mdf')

FOR ATTACH_REBUILD_LOG ;

Assuming you move the MDF to the above location. Should be ok.
