    Hi Basit,

    Great article: quick and effective. Just a quick question, since in SQL Server 2008 the resource database is stored in Binn directory, did the disaster affect this directory? Also, since this database is never modified except by service pack updates, it could not be faster to copy and paste from another running instance with the same version, language and edition?

    Kind regards,

    As far as I'm aware it only updates resource database files. I never tried copying and pasting of the other instance resource database onto this dricetory. But it's worth trying to see if this hack approach works. 🙂
