Fix Could not find file During Set up Client Restore Service Setup

While conducting the overview of Windows Storage Server 2012 R2 Essentials, I ran into a few errors while configuring the “Set up Client Restore Service”.  It seems that no matter what I did, I couldn’t get the service to start.  Then, a little digging, a quick copy & paste; all was resolved.

In an effort to help you along in your Essentials Journey, I have documented the steps that eventually got the service working for me.

1. Install the ADK before you even start: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=39982

When you start the process, you will be prompted a nagging error.
