Use Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server to create new applications or enhance existing applications that need to take advantage of newer SQL Server features. ## Download for Windows The redistributable installer for Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server installs the client components, which are required during run time to take advantage of newer SQL Server features. It optionally installs the header files needed to develop an application that uses the ODBC API. Starting with version 17.4.2, the installer also includes and installs the Microsoft Active Directory Authentication Library (ADAL.dll). Version 17.5.2 is the latest general availability (GA) version.
