Please specify exactly what MSSQL software is required and how to install it

The signup confirmation email said:

If you have connection issues, then you may be missing the MSSQL driver on your computer, you can download it here:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29065

So I went to that page and clicked "Download." The resulting download, bizarrely, was just a confusing text file with, like, country road driving directions to the download, and a note saying:

please be certain to pick the appropriate component architecture for download.

I'd... like to be certain!? Either I need a better link, or more specific requirements info.

Looks like that is the necessary information. Would be great if the confirmation email (subject: Welcome to the Celestial Altium Databse) linked to that wiki page instead of the Microsoft page.

Though it would be great to have a HOWTO for a local installation, given that Azure seems to have less-than-stellar uptime.
