Today I encountered this error when my SQL Server instance wouldn't start after I made some changes in connection yesterday.
After checking the logs, I received the following error:
SQL Server could not spawn FRunCM thread. Check the SQL Server error log and the Windows event logs for information about possible related problems.
So, I went back to undo each change I had made, and noticed that the last change I made was to enable VIA as a protocol for my SQL Server instance. Disabled that, and SQL Server now starts fine.
