Hi all

I have a strange issue - compounded by the fact that it's occurring at 5
different customers.

All Exchange 2013  - when you open an Exchange powershell console & issue
the Test-AssistantHealth cmdlet - it returns a notice that a perf counter
isn't installed. This happens if you use Powershell manually, or if our
alerting software tries to confirm health. It happens more than once a day,
and causes lots of new incidents to be created. During validation, you can
go into PerfMon, easily load this counter, and create graphs and reports
with it. The counter is there, and functioning.

Removing and re-installing the perf counters does nothing.

The warning we see in a PS console is:

PS] C:\Windows\system32>Test-AssistantHealth |fl

Does anyone have any suggestions? Has anyone seen this? I'm open to any and
all suggestions, thanks.
