Cause
SQL Server that you are trying to connect to is setup to only allow Windows Authentication. Remote Support Center requires that you have SQL Server and Windows Authentication enabled.

Connect to SQL Server using SQL Management Studio tools. Right click on Server name and go to properties. Then go to Security and change Server Authentication to “SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode”. Then run the installer again.
