Symptoms:

In ccmsdkprovider.log you will also see the following error:

Error 800706a6 means that the RPC binding handle is invalid.
GetUserCapability calls Windows Terminal Server (WTS) functions to query session information for the Remote Desktop Session Host (RD Session Host) server. It can be used to query session information on local and remote desktop session host servers.
If Terminal Services is not running, calls to WTS functions fail.
