This is the result of running an rdisk /s to write repair files locally (for
secure storage in a central location) :)

In a recent pen-test,  I discovered a different configuration for where the
sam._ file may be. Instead of winnt/system32/repair/sam._ , this system had
it's sam._ file in winnt/repair/sam._  This was the first configuration I
had
seen like this. The sam._ files were intact. Just thought you might like to
give that a try.
