Same error, did manage to get it working once by updating Windows 11 and repairing/re-installing windows c++ redistributables.
When I’ve come to play it again same error and previous fixes don’t work along with usual troubleshooting (Firewall addition/Run as admin/compatibility/repair files etc) including these on the forum:

Repairing the C++ Redistributables has worked for me.
