Hey, I could use some help here. So, I've got this issue where the "Remote Access Connection Manager (RasMan)" service isn't running on my laptop. It just won't start, even when I try to do it manually or set it to start automatically. Has anyone else had this problem before? I'm using Windows 11 Enterprise OS.

    Any VPN software installed/uninstalled on the system recently? Anyway, please try the RasMan fixes on this page.

    Run DISM and SFC: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/use-the-system-file-checker-tool-to-repair-missing-or-corrupted-system-files-79aa86cb-ca52-166a-92a3-966e85d4094e

    If nothing helps, you may run a ProcMon trace to capture the RasMan service start events. Or simply repair your Windows 11 installation by downloading the Enterprise ISO.

    Hi Mirza,

    What happens when you start the service? What's the exact error message/code you received?
