    Hi UmarF8,

    I have checked the issue, and based on my understanding, you need to enable the Windows feature and restart manually. If you need to disable the feature later, you can simply reverse the steps.

    I hope these steps resolve your issue. If you need further assistance, please let me know.

    Best regards,

    Arvind

    Try clearing the temp files, then restart your system. Check if these steps resolve the issue. I hope this helps.
