SQL Server Management Studio doesn't connect to server

I just installed SQL Server Management Studio and it auto creates a server with your PC name to connect to, but it doesn't connect - all I get is this error. I tried reinstalling and also there's no server with that name in the services to start
TITLE: Connect to Server
Cannot connect to DESKTOP-7UA72F9.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 2)
It looks like you've installed Management studio only. Server doesn't come with it. Could you provide additional info on what steps you went through exactly? What install files did you use?
If you're looking to play with MS SQL Server, there is an Express version, it's free.

Thanks.

Error during deploy from visual studio to analysis server

I'm connected to analysis server:localhost\sqlr2.
I'm using windows authentication,so user name and password are all grayed out.
I'm trying to deploy a project from Visual Studio BI to SQL Server 2008R2 analysis server and get the following errors:
Error 1 Internal error: The operation terminated unsuccessfully. 0 0
Error 2 OLE DB error: OLE DB or ODBC error: Login timeout expired; HYT00; A network-related or instance-specific error has occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server.

Error 3 Errors in the high-level relational engine. A connection could not be made to the data source with the DataSourceID of 'Max Min Manufacturing DM', Name of 'Max Min Manufacturing DM'. 0 0
It looks like your datasource is set up wrong. When you process, what server is the cube pointed at? What account does SSAS run under? How have you set up the connection string in the datasource? Are you seeing failed login attempts in the SQL Server logs?
Error 2 OLE DB error: OLE DB or ODBC error: Login timeout expired; HYT00;
A network-related or instance-specific error has occurred while establishing a
connection to SQL Server. Server is not found or not accessible.
Check if instance name is correct and if SQL Server is configured
to allow remote connections.
I'd focus on this. I assume you must be able to connect to SQL Server in Visual Studio to build your cube, so I guess Analysis Services doesn't have permissions. Check your connection strings.
You say you're using Windows Authentication, so does the service accounts that Analysis Services runs under have access to the required database?
I would like to share my experience with this error and how I discovered the solution.
Hope it helps!

---Thanks #kleopatra for the advice.
In my case I was connecting with a wrong provider, I was trying to connect using SQL Server Native Client 11.0 to MS SQL Server 2005 DB which caused my similar problem.
When I reverted to version 10.0, worked perfectly!
