The exe file I am referring to is the installation (setup) file not the Equisim program exe file. The name of the installation file will be something like ESROI_19_REG.exe. With your custom version it might be ESROI_20_REG.exe.
Terminology might be getting in the way here. To be clear, you can't reinstall from a backup. You can only restore from a backup. Did you just copy the ES folder structure to another drive or did you actually use a backup program like Macrium or Acronis? If it was the former, did you just copy the backup folder(s) to the drive you wanted ES to be on and are calling it "reinstalling"?
I am suggesting that you uninstall ES and then reinstall from the actual setup program mentioned above and NOT from the backup. I doubt that this is a Windows problem; rather I suspect as you did, that a core file or files are missing. The only way to make sure that the necessary files are available is to use the original setup program that Nathan sent to you. I don't have any other ideas on how to fix the error.
To answer your other question, yes -- the only files in the FrmTempls folder should be the .efr files.
