WIN8 system, installed to SQL Server 2005, with Navicat (version 11.0.17--64-bit) connection when prompted to install Microsoft SQL Server Native Client, but direct security software requires that the installation prompt version does not match!
Resolution process:
To the Microsoft Official website to download 2005 version of Sqlncli_x64.msi (my 64-bit), uninstall the original native Client, install the new download, after completion or not
Online search for a solution, in fact, Navicat comes with Sqlncli_x64.msi, in the installation directory, after installation problem solving! (This is the version of SQL Server 2008 that was found during the installation, and it may be possible to download version 2008 instead of the first method)
