PerfCounters & Similar Errors
On our Windows 2008 x64 Exchange server, we're getting a number of recurring errors in our event log (listed below). One suggestion I've found repeatedly while searching is to run the following set of commands:
unlodctr w3svc
unlodctr msftpsvc
unlodctr asp
unlodctr inetinfo
lodctr w3ctrs.ini
lodctr ftpctrs.ini
lodctr axperf.ini
lodctr infoctrs.ini
I can unload the counters successfully, but when I attempt to reload, the commands fail. I've looked in my %SystemRoot%\System32 folder and found that these .ini files don't exist.
Any thoughts on the commands above, and resolving the errors below in general? Thanks!

Jeff - thanks for the suggestion. I restarted W3SVC this morning per the technet article and am still receiving the same Event ID 2002 as above (none of the others have appeared yet, but this is only over the course of a few hours). The event claims that Web Service counters failed, yet when I try to load any of the counters in the Performance monitor listed under "W3SVC_W3WP", they all seem to load successfully.
Can you post the text of one of the error messages?

Thanks for that. Have you rebooted this server since running the loadctr commands?
If not, please reboot.

In case I hadn't done so, I rebooted this morning. I've seen event ID 2002 occur a couple of times since the reboot. Prior to the most recent error, the following error popped up in case this helps:

Today I finally had the chance to work on the server during off-hours - and strangely, when I checked the event log to see if the events were still piling up, they had stopped completely. So I'm uncertain what resolved it, but your last suggestion would have been the next piece and likely would have been the end of the problems. Thanks for all of your help on this, Jeff!
