Fatal exception during startup Invalid provider type specifies

Hi All,

Recently I have uninstalled my old version of QlikSense server (including client certificate) and after that I have installed latest version June 2020 QlikSense server.
But I am keep getting below error after installation of software due to which repository service is not starting. It starts but immediately stopped.

Error : Fatal exception during startup Invalid provider type specifies

I would really appreciate if someone can provide any suggestion..

I have also tried below article resolution but getting same error. I have done multiple times reinstallation without success.

1. Stop the services
2. Launch Regedit
3. Locate HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography\Protect\Providers\df9d8cd0-1501-11d1-8c7a-00c04fc297eb.
4. Add ProtectionPolicy DWORD 32-bit with the value of 1.
5. Run the bootstrap process again by running "C:\Program Files\Qlik\Sense\Repository\Repository.exe" -bootstrap -iscentral -restorehostname from an elevated (Run as Administrator) command prompt
6. Start the services
Best Regards,
Arunesh
