[[SQL Server Management Studio Express]] can be used to connect to an instance of Windows Internal Database using <code>\\.\pipe\MSSQL$MICROSOFT##SSEE\sql\query</code> as instance name. But this will only work locally, as Remote Connections cannot be enabled for this edition of SQL Server. ''Also note that "Windows Authentication" should be used (as opposed to SQL Server Authentication), and administrators seem to have the best results of authenticating successfully when logged on using the same administrative account that was created when Windows was installed.''
