SQL Install or Startup Failure - Windows 11 BC Framer; exit code: 0x851A001A

Some new BC Framer® software installs are failing during the SQL Server portion on Windows 11.

From the SQLSetup.log:

Process returned exit code: 0x851A001A

Local setup.exe returned exit code: 0x851A001A

Setup closed with exit code: 0x84C40013

This Microsoft help document describes the cause. Refer to possible solutions in the linked KB:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/sql/admin/troubleshoot-os-4kb-disk-sector-size

"During service startup, SQL Server begins the database recovery process to ensure database consistency. Part of this database recovery process involves consistency checks on the underlying filesystem before attempting the activity of opening system and user database files.

On systems running Windows 11, some new storage devices and device drivers will expose a disk sector size greater than the supported 4 KB sector size.

When this occurs, SQL Server will be unable to start due to the unsupported file system as SQL Server currently supports sector storage sizes of 512 bytes and 4 KB."
