I did a fresh installation of a SQL Server Standard 2016 on Microsoft Windows Server 2016.
During the installation and manually starting the database engine service i get the following error:
Windows could not start the SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) service on Local Computer
Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
I tried changing the credentials under which the service runs to Local Service, User Account and the Administrator account
manually starting the SQL Server binary (sqlservr.exe) via command line i get the following error:
The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000142). Click OK to close the application.
The event log has the following event:
