    When someone found an error "One or more network protocols are missing on this computer or PC" then This error occurs when Windows sockets registry entries are actually required for network connectivity. Due to missing these entries we find this error. There different ways to get rid of this error. 1) Restore missing protocols files 2) Disable iPv6 3) Resetting the Winscok.

    Named Pipes

    Named Pipes is an authenticated protocol. This means that any time a user attempts to open a connection to the SQL Server via Named Pipes, the Windows NT authentication process occurs. This is important to remember because Named Pipes is also the default protocol when installing SQL Server. Named Pipes is required to support SQL Server's integrated security option. It's also worth noting that Named Pipes connects very fast – much faster than the other protocols.

    Named Pipes is an excellent choice for network protocol if your application intends to use SQL Server's integrated security and does not need other protocols for remote connections.

    Open SQL Server Configuration tools and make sure that Named Pipes and TCP/IP are selected in the Protocols section.  Put Named Pipes first in Order.

    I think you should check your network and sharing center if your Network discovery is on and also check if they are on the same workgroup which is rear to happen and also check your IP sequence i believe it will work
