PR Summary

mpr.dll is used for SMB network connections which is not available on some SKUs of Windows. In addition, STA is not supported on such SKUs. Fix is to handle case where mpr.dll is not on the system and fail gracefully. Similarly, even if you specify -mta to pwsh, we use STA for creating the jumplist, this throws an exception on systems where STA is not supported, so fix is to catch that exception and ignore.
