Hi,

Can we restore KRBTGT accounts in case of accidentally remove ?

We have 5 KRBTGT for RODC deleted by mistake in our domain.

A restoration can resolve the issue or we should perform another actions ?

    Yes , you can restore them from AD recycle bin or from a backup.

    A restoration can resolve the issue or we should perform another actions ?

    It should fix the issue , but if it's not the case , you should promote again all RODC impacted by this deletion. The KRBTGT account will be generated during the RODC promotion.

    This tool may sort it, or you can also demote, reboot, promo the problematic one again.
