PENDING Configuration Manager Console - No options Administration tab only

[Mina]

Hi there,
Please advise, I'm fairly new to the SCCM, I've set up an SCCM lab at home with the help of Prajwal's videos and Youtube.
For some reason when I open up the Configuration manager it takes so long to connect to the database, and when it does i only see the Administration tab with a blank console. Unable to click on Administration tab either.
Please see the screenshot below.



Troubleshooting:
- Tried Repairing Configuration Manager Console
- Tried Uninstalling/ reinstalling Configuration manager

Could it be the case the SQL Server is an evaluation copy and has expired hence unable to connect to the database as it needs to be licensed?

Any help would be much appreciated!!!

Thanks in advance
Mina

This screams to be a permission problem. Like the OP are you using an eval Lic key for SQL? Have you viewed the logs?

Check the console log files: https://www.prajwal.org/sccm-admin-console-logs-configmgr-console/
Review the permissions for the account that you are using to launch the console
