Hi, you can download SQL Server 2012 Management Studio Express from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29062
There are options for 32-bit and 64-bit, so grab the correct one based on your machine architecture. For future installs, you can save a step by downloading/installing Express Advanced (ex: SQLEXPRADV_x86_ENU.exe), which includes both the Express database engine and the client tools (SSMS).
Thanks,

Whichever of these you need depending on whether your OS is 32 bit or 64 bit:
NU\x64\SQLManagementStudio_x64_ENU.exe
600.2 MB
ENU\x86\SQLManagementStudio_x86_ENU.exe
614.9 MB
Run the installer, then choose 'New SQL Server stand-alone installation or add features to an existing installation' and follow the wizard.

hello
I too am trying to install management studio for 2012 express and am out of luck and patience.
I have currently got 2008 R2 full and express versions and now would like to upgrade my free version to 2012
I am getting an error when I download and install the management studio element from the link you have listed above:
"The system cannot find the windows installer file"
Any words of wisdom for me?

I get the same message for any of the SQL Express 2012 products: Server, SP1, Management Studio... The server might be down.
I hope it works soon, I need to install it today

You can download and use SQL Express 2014 Management Studio. It can connect to SQL 2012 Express and is still available.

I've downloaded this and installed it. But it only install mssql server.
There is no place to install the management studio. Where do we get that??
Or how do I install it. It isn't available in this package as far as I can tell.
Thanks!

You gave a link to SQL Server Express install and not management studio. You work for MSFT and do not know the difference.Wednesday, April 13, 2016 1:43 PM

Hi,
Does SQLEXPRADV_x64_ENU.exe setup(Sql Express 2016) contains SSMS ?
I want SqlExpress 2016 edition with SSMS. Please suggest.
Thanks

The link provided by @motomarks is the latest and greatest version of SQL Server Management Studio.
Starting with SQL Server 2016 we no longer ship a version of SQL Server (Express or otherwise) that contains SQL Server Management Studio. You can always obtain the latest version of SQL Server Management Studio using the above link, or http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=531355 (which points to the same link as above and will be updated should the download link change).
