I run an Exchange 2007 SP3 server on Windows 2008 and most of the time I perform simple management tasks directly from my laptop via the Exchange Management Tools (laptop is Windows 7 64-bit). A couple of days ago I started getting an error popup when viewing the Server Configuration, Hub Transport, Receive Connectors tab, and all my receive connectors were missing. The error was "Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Web.Administration' ..." I have blogged about the fix here: http://www.frostbyte.com.au/Blog/tabid/64/EntryId/8/Missing-receive-connectors-in-Exchange-Management-Console.aspx In summary, to fix: uninstalled the management tools from my laptop rebooted reinstalled the tools Thought this might help someone else ...

Dear Frosty, I appreciate your thought and intention. Thanks.
