You could try changing the registry value at HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQLServer\SuperSocketNetLib. The server name might vary.

Alternately, you could use WMI - System.Management Namespace[^].
Here is an example - Configure Aliases Programmatically Using WMI[^].

You can do this though a powerscript that can be launched from C# - Enable or Disable a Server Network Protocol[^].

and same problem with your other links "Configure Aliases Programmatically Using WMI". i cannot understand the paramters.

And your last method tells a way to connect without changing settings but in my case it is not possible as it needs every configuration enabled.
