SQL Server Configuration Manager not found

Question

If you happen to be using Windows 8 and up, here's how to get to it:

• The newer Microsoft SQL Server Configuration Manager is a snap-in for the Microsoft Management Console program.

• It is not a stand-alone program as used in the previous versions of Microsoft Windows operating systems.

• SQL Server Configuration Manager doesn’t appear as an application when running Windows 8.

• To open SQL Server Configuration Manager, in the Search charm, under Apps, type:

  SQLServerManager15.msc for [SQL Server 2019] or

  SQLServerManager14.msc for [SQL Server 2017] or

  SQLServerManager13.msc for [SQL Server 2016] or

  SQLServerManager12.msc for [SQL Server 2014] or

  SQLServerManager11.msc for [SQL Server 2012] or

  SQLServerManager10.msc for [SQL Server 2008], and then press Enter.

Text kindly reproduced from SQL Server Configuration Manager changes in Windows 8
