This is effectively reopening @lextm's PR (#47290) from over a year ago. I would have actually reopened that PR if GitHub let me, but it did not.
We have gotten more reports of how broken the ANCM ARM64 installer is when you enable x86 and x64 emulation. Enabling emulation with ANCM installed will cause all app pools to crash on startup, even those that aren't using ANCM. This is all well described in the issue @lextm filed at #47115, but we missed the severity of the impact until now.
@lextm, I found your blogpost describing your valiant attempt to get this merged the first time. I'm very sorry for the "The Not-So-Happy Ending". I'm hoping to correct it now. If you want to reopen the PR yourself, please feel welcome. I don't expect that though.
Otherwise, I know you've had a lot of experience since then helping people out with https://github.com/lextm/ancm-arm64. If there's anything you want us to change about this PR, please let us know. Thanks for all your hard work filing the issue, submitting a PR, and then helping people manually patch the installer.
Fixes #47115
