title: SQL Server 2008 R2 Express: Management Tools Missing from Feature Selection
body: <p>I am trying to install <code>SQL Server 2008 R2 Express</code> with the <code>SQL Server Management Studio</code>.</p>
  
  <p>However, the Management Tools feature does not seem to be selectable.  The screen-shot below shows which Features are available for me to select:</p>

  <p>I have made sure that the <code>SQL Server 2008 R2 Management Objects</code> was installed!</p>

  <p>I have tried both answered methods at <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7216482/cant-install-sql-server-2008-r2-management-tool-complete">Can&#39;t install SQL Server 2008 R2 management tool (complete)</a> and they both do not seem to work for me, I still do not see Management Tools.  Upgrading the Edition under the Maintenance section and Uninstalling/Re-installing the <code>SQL Server</code> had no additional effects.  The files I am trying to work with to get this to work are:</p>
  
  <p><code>SQLEXPR_x64_ENU.exe</code> - This is Service Pack 3</p>
  
  <p><code>SQLManagementStudio_x64_ENU.exe</code> - The file name fooled me, since <strong>there is no management studio feature selection</strong>!</p>
  
  <p>The question is, why does Microsoft makes it so difficult?</p>
  
  <p>I am using a Windows 7, 64-bit machine.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.</p>
