title: SQL Server Management Studio doesn't connect to server
body: <p>I just installed SQL Server Management Studio and it auto creates a server with your PC name to connect to, but it doesn't connect - all I get is this error. I tried reinstalling and also there's no server with that name in the services to start</p>
