My situation is a bit different. My server crashed and I restored a System State backup over a new machine/installation of Windows 8 R2.

I dont have access to a functional server. The previous server crashed. I do have the harddrives, but I dont know how I would export from them. So I tried the third approach in your article.

I tried removing the [enc from the applicationHost.config file. Although I successfully did that using regular expression to make it easier, and the file now not having ANY [enc information, the TEMP folder files are still generated with the [enc entries. I have no idea where it gets them from.

One detail I did notice is that the machine key GUID is the same as what is in the registry and the keys in the MachineKeys folder.

I am at a loss and trying anything here. I need to keep removing the [enc entries manually every time a site is started so that it works for the users.

Any tips are appreciated.

Thanks
