Option 2. Running the following commands from an elevated command prompt, he was able to reload the performance counters for the MA in question:

  1. Stop ADsync Service
  2. Delete registry key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ADSync\Performance]
  3. Recreate the 'Performance' registry key.
  4. unlodctr.exe ADSync
