Note:

A small number of users have reported encountering an issue with the SQL service after deployment, where the status type indicates "Automatic" and the service shows as "Running," but the SQL server does not function properly. If you encounter this issue, simply restart the server and attempt to access the SQL server again. This should resolve the issue.

If you are experiencing issues regaining access to SQL Server Express as a system administrator, we prepared a script accompanied by a README, which are located on the desktop.
