Default Behavior

Recommended Troubleshooting Service is a Win32 service. In Windows 11 it starts only if the user, an application or another service starts it. When the Recommended Troubleshooting Service is started, it logs on as LocalSystem and running in a shared process of svchost.exe. If Recommended Troubleshooting Service fails to start, the failure details will be recorded into Event Log. Then Windows 11 should boot up and notify the user about the TroubleshootingSvc service startup failure.

Dependencies

Recommended Troubleshooting Service cannot be started, if the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) service won't start.

2. Copy the command below, paste it into the command window and press ENTER:

sc config TroubleshootingSvc start= demand

The TroubleshootingSvc service is using the MitigationClient.dll file that is located in the C:\Windows\system32 directory. If the file is removed or corrupted, read this article to restore its original version from Windows 11 installation media.
