Event ID 352 When Trying To Start AD FS Service

I am trying to get AD FS up and running. When running the initial wizard, I get all green check marks except for when the service tries to start.

This article which edits the registry did not resolve the issue:

This article says that SQL server is having an issue:

I didn't read anything about needing SQL server in order to set up AD FS

ASKER

None of that worked. Keep in mind that I'm setting up ADFS for the first time. The setup wizard fails at starting the service.
