      I installed Jenkins 2.204.2 for the first time on my Windows 10 Pro machine today. I have made no changes to its configuration after installing it using the Windows MSI installer

      When the installer first automatically opened http://localhost:8080 upon installation, I just got a "failed to connect" browser error page. When I looked at Services, the Jenkins service was not running.

      After that, I changed the Jenkins Windows service to run as a domain user which has been granted Modify access to the Jenkins installation at C:\Program Files (x86)\Jenkins. Then I manually started the Jenkins windows service.

      When I go to http://localhost:8080, I get an error page with the following information:

      Oops!

      Upon receiving that error message, the Jenkins Windows Service stops and must be restarted before viewing the page again. Same error message after restarting the service.

      The failed-boot-attempts.txt file in the Jenkins installation contains this:
