From SQL Server 2008 Setup, you have to select "Client Tools Connectivity" to install SQL Server Configuration Manager.
On windows 10 Control Panel→Administrative Tools→Computer Management
This path worked for me. on a 32 bit machine.
C:\Windows\System32\mmc.exe /32 C:\Windows\system32\SQLServerManager10.msc
Start--> run--> conf ---select configuration manager in mention in picture
Paste this line in folder path url in file explore: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager11.msc then press enter.
I know this is old but you can directly browse it using this paths..
SQL Server 2019 C:\Windows\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager15.msc
SQL Server 2017 C:\Windows\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager14.msc
SQL Server 2016 C:\Windows\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager13.msc
SQL Server 2014 C:\Windows\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager12.msc
SQL Server 2012 C:\Windows\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager11.msc
SQL Server 2008 C:\Windows\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager10.msc
source is from ms site https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms174212.aspx
One can also specify
%systemroot%
for the path of Windows directory. For example:SQL Server 2019: %systemroot%\SysWOW64\SQLServerManager15.msc
