Smart Storage Administrator and Hyper-V 2012 R2 Core

[bimmerdriver]

Thank you very much for your helpful post, not only the fix, but what caused the problem.

I was able to get the VMs back by executing the fix in this post: Opened up Hyper-V today and all of my VMs where missing… umm what?  It's exactly the same fix that you posted.

"Your account info" and "Manage your account" are still broken (along with who know what else), so I will be reinstalling the OS. IT's pretty scary that the OS can be broken so badly, so easily.
