Hi @VMHero4Ever,
That "verification value still has initial data" message means that registry settings were not (completely) imported correctly, but without DEBUG logging it will be hard to pinpoint the problem any further. Sometimes there's anti-malware software that gets in the way of DEM imports; might something have changed in that regard in last 3 months that could have contributed to this?
When you say "same issue", what issue do you mean exactly? Profile archives failing to import, seeing that "verification value still has initial data" error message, ...?
