In my checks running on another Windows 2022 server, in an English 
locale, the messages are "No Instance(s) Available." This also suggests 
it is not a configuration problem on the check server.

In principle you could also use a free Windows virtual machine for the 
debugging:

Windows 11 (currently limited until July 10)
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/virtual-machines

Windows 10 (an old one, limited to 90 days)
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/vms
https://blog.r-project.org/2021/03/18/virtual-windows-machine-for-checking-r-packages/index.html

Or you can also instrument your package and submit to say Winbuilder and 
debug that way.

Best
