I did have DSC running on a machine (Server 2012 R2, PS 5.1), but something’s obviously changed as it has stopped working and now when I run Get-DscConfiguration I get the following error: ``` Get-DscConfiguration : The PowerShell DSC resource MSFT_ServiceResource from module does not exist at the PowerShell module path nor is it registered as a WMI DSC resource. ``` Looks almost like something has got corrupted or messed up. Any suggestions? David ---

Most likely reason is that PSDesiredStateConfiguration Module version has changed from 1.0 to 1.1 and something in the configuration is confusing DSC. Have you tried re-compiling the original configuration with WMF 5.1? ---
