SSMS Server Name Not Showing | Fixed

SQL Server Management Studio not showing Server name to establish connection | Fixed

🤷 Reason:
SSMS is the tool used to connect to and manage SQL Server Instances, if you haven’t installed a SQL Server instance you have nothing to run your queries against!

❓ Question on Stackexchange:
I Recently Installed Microsoft SQL Server 2014 (SSMS) on my local machine for development learning purposes. I am running Windows 10 32 bit. When I try to connect, the Server Name does not appear.
According to my research, the name of the local server should appear in the marked field. I think that the Installation is successful.

I am unable to find the solution to this problem. I installed SSMS 2015 RC0, Problem was not solved. Then I uninstalled it and Installed SSMS 2014. But the problem is not solved. I remember perfectly that about a year ago. I installed SSMS and there was no such problem. I can’t figure out Why the server name is not appearing. When I try to connect by manually entering the Local server name(./), the following error occurs

Any help would be appreciated.
