When attempting to install SQL Express 2012 in Windows 8 I received the error:
Wait on the Database Engine recovery handle failed. Check the SQL Server error log for potential causes.
For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?...

The link usefully returns a page stating:
"There is no additional information about this issue in the Error and Event Log Messages or Knowledge Base databases at this time..."
"There is no additional information about this issue in the Error and Event Log Messages or Knowledge Base databases at this time..."
A search online returned this page on http://blogs.msdn.com which gave some steps to resolve it. It appears to be related to corrupt profiles. The steps didn't quite work for me so here are my amended ones:
- Open the Services Console and right click SQL Server Express, choose Properties, Log On tab.
- It had 'This account' selected with a NT Service\MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS user. I changed it to 'Local Service account'.
