I'm trying to enable RRA on Windows 11 Pro but the service stops a few seconds after started. The error (Event ID 7024) on the Event Viewer is:

The Routing and Remote Access service terminated with the following service-specific error: 
The system cannot find the file specified.

I've checked they registry key "Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\RemoteAccess\Parameters\ServiceDLL" and it points to "%SystemRoot%\System32\mprdim.dll" which is a valid file on my system.

Any idea what could be wrong?
