I installed SQL Server 2012 Express SSMS a while ago and tried to run SQL Server 2012 SSMS and get evaluation period expired message and ask me to buy the SSMS.

I would like to know is SQL server 2012 Express SSMS free or only has evaluation period? If yes, are there any way to install the SSMS free express verison?

Your help and information is great appreciated,

It sounds like you after all downloaded Evaluation Edition - or maybe
it was the CTP? You should be able to download SQL 2012 with tools from
