reactingParcelFoam crash on precompiled OpenFOAM (v2406 / Windows 10) when using surface film

When running reactingParcelFoam with lagrangian to surface film modelling on a precompiled version of OpenFOAM (v2406 / Windows 10), the solver crashes with the following error :

failed lookup of thermo:mu (objectRegistry region0)

The exact same case runs without any issue on a Linux machine (CentOS).

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Run the hotBoxes tutorial on the precompiled version of OpenFOAM v2406

I suspect it has to do with the way Windows handles the special characters, but is there another reason or a workaround?
