Microsoft SQL Server commercial application being recognized when only client is installed.

Microsoft SQL Server(Unknown Component) is being recognized when only SQL Server Management Studio is installed

Description -
When Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio is installed, there are two entries in the add/remove programs which manifests into installer evidence – one with the footprints of Management Studio and another just states SQL Server.

According to the details in the evidence, ARL recognized both SQL Server Management Studio and SQL Server (Unknown Component). While Management Studio was an expected title, SQL Server(Unknown Component) which is classified as commercial, is not anticipated and hence a false recognition.

Content Team has investigated this scenario and has identified a differentiating pattern for an evidence extracted from a Management Studio installation versus an actual SQL Server installation.

Fix - 
This discrepancy in recognition has been fixed for SQL Server Management Studio versions 2016 and 2017 and is scheduled for the upcoming ARL release on 20th March 2020.
