SQL Server install freezes on "Install_SQLSupport_CPU64_Action"

The solution: You will need to browse to this installation path: C:\SQLServer2017Media\<YOUR_SQL_ENU>\1033_ENU_LP\x64\Setup

Then while the setup is stuck at “Install_SQLSupport_CPU64_Action” run SQLSUPPORT.msi

And follow the installation procedure.

Once installed, run the following command in cmd:

taskkill /F /FI "SERVICES eq msiserver"

The SQL Server setup will continue and succeed.

Edit:

2019 : C:\SQL2019...

2022 : C:\SQL2022\Developer_ENU\1033_ENU_LP\x64\Setup
