ERROR_IPSEC_IKE_SECLOADFAIL

ERROR_IPSEC_IKE_SECLOADFAIL (0x0000361C) The IKE service could not load a required security component. This points to a local Windows servicing, dependency, or service-startup problem rather than an IPsec proposal mismatch with the peer.

What to check

Inspect System and IKEEXT-related event logs for the earlier DLL, dependency, or service-start failure.
Verify that IKEEXT and IPsec Policy Agent are present and can start normally.
Do not copy or replace system DLLs manually. Use supported Windows servicing and repair methods if component corruption is indicated.

Get-Service IKEEXT, PolicyAgent
