Thanks again for all of your help! MUCH APPRECIATED!

Wanted to post an update that my WHS appears to have to stabilized and improved. Ran backups and updates on all machines and the errors that were showing up on WHS have generally stopped showing up about backups and unable to monitor computer health.

I am running manual backups, will see how it goes and how it works tomorrow, thanks again for all of your help!

The sever seems to be running slower after fixing the backup reg key. After the first reboot my computer didn't load up in the console/computers and backup, restarted server again. Computers were back after 2nd reboot, still running slow, started some machine backups. Getting warnings in the alert viewer that one computers Computer Monitoring Error (windows update missing). And it has a server was unexpectedly restarted (never saw that before)

Awesome, just made the change and appears to have fixed the issue. Should I have 100% confidence that my backups are there?

Awesome, awesome, awesome, thanks so much for your help! I ran the WSS Troubleshooter and it restored my shared folders super quick. However it did NOT restore my Client Backup folder and after reboot WHS is still alarming about that. Should I try to manually re-link the backup folder? Anything less aggressive to try first? Thanks again! I love the DrivePool product, appreciate the help!

Was working on an SSD for another machine and dropped it in my WHS with DrivePool. Something happened while it was in there and when I rebooted the WHS it said it couldn't find any of the standard shared folders (including system backups) or the shared folders I built. My assumption is like this thread discusses: http://forum.covecube.com/discussion/456/lost-all-my-shared-folders/p1 that it changed the drive letters for everything with the SSD and that has thrown the whole drive pool off. I don't know what letters my drives were before either, but assume it isn't different by much. The files/folders are on the drivepool when you explore it in win explorer, but it's not shared. I was able to relink/point through the console using the relink feature for a few shared folders, took a few minutes but looks like the data is there. I am most concerned about getting the backups all pointed back at the right spot, have a lot of older system backups I would like to have access too. Any suggestions? I am copying the entire 2.5 TB backup folder right now in hopes that it could be pushed back in case it gets wiped if I do a manual linking to the folder. Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions!
