My steps.
1.Start the SQL server in Single User Mode
2.Run command “start /wait setup.exe /qn INSTANCENAME=<instance> REINSTALL=SQL_Engine REBUILDDATABASE=1 SAPWD=<New SA Password>” SQLCOLLATION=<new collation>.
3. Restart the SQL Server Services in regular mode.
4. Check the SQL server collation. but the collation is still the old one.
