Exchange 2013 /m:recoverserver constantly failing due to MSExchangeSubmission.exe

Hi all,

I am trying to recover my lab Exchange 2013 server after removing a component of IIS messed all IIS functions, including all virtual directories.

The server is running on Hyper-V so I have removed and rebuilt the OS disk whilst the Exchange data resides on a separate disk. I've reset the computer account in AD and then run the command:

setup /m:recoverserver /targetdir:"d:\Program Files\Microsoft Exchange\v15" /DoNotStartTransport /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms

I have now done this a number of times and on each occasion it fails when attempting to start the Microsoft Exchange Transport Submission service. The error in the event log is as follows:
