DPM upgrade from 1809 to 2022 Fails

Question

When attempting to upgrade DPM 1809 to 2022 it fails the prerequisites check with the following error:

This DPM server is using a shared library.Disable library sharing by running the following commands and run the program again.

1. SetSharedDPMDatbase.exe RemoveDatabaseSharing.
2. AddLibraryServerForDpm.exe -DpmServerWithLibrary <FQDN of LibraryServer> -Remove

Backup the DPM database and if you are using a remote instance of SQL Server, attach it to the SQL Server.

When attempting to run SetSharedDPMDatbase.exe RemoveDatabaseSharing it fails with the following error:

Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'SetupExceptionFactory, Version=1.0.523.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
