Hi, I am not sure about what is going on over there, but I can imagine the following possibilities: 1 - A provider is failing, as your log mentions. For troubleshooting this, you can follow this wonderful guide https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/heyscriptingguy/2012/09/12/use-powershell-to-troubleshoot-provider-load-failure/ 2- When you manually load/run the EG client, are you finding any error anytime? Please check. - Probably you can enable the Logs of Enterprise guide and see if there is anything over there: http://support.sas.com/kb/55/414.html 3- I can see an error related to the load/location of the Shared Data folder, which is strange, unless you already made connection to a metadata server. If you did, maybe there is something on the metadata server logs (permissions on the Shared Data folder?) 4- Less frequent, but also possible, maybe not all the dlls of EG or .NET are properly registered. For .NET I suggest a clean re-installation of the framework, and for EG, you can run EGuide.exe -register (or /register).
