My .net performance counters were missing on Windows 7

I had a strange problem today. I wanted to take a peek at the CLR memory performance counters but I couldn’t find them. After some searching it turns out I needed to set the following registery key to 0;

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\.NETFramework\Performance\Disable Performance Counters
