Thanks for fixing this, and thanks Lev for reviewing and +2'ing

I have only had a light stare at the code, and it's all magic windows
foo - and the netsh.exe sempaphore only applies to "setups without iservice",
which we want to get rid of anyway.

I did test builds via GHA, but no actual test runs.

Your patch has been applied to the master, release/2.7 and release/2.6
branch (we declared that we do not want to do another 2.6 windows installer
release, but should we ever do, it has this as well).

commit 23396ac49bdd390d2e559e74fec16e8763650b78 (master)
commit 73fb222a295e95d4c8a70b756db39bea70bf9156 (release/2.7)
commit 78a1a7bd965e940001b040ea8ec127ea2dfc00a2 (release/2.6)
