[Issue]ExPerfWiz adds counters incorrectly to datacollector

[nourdinb]

Describe the issue
With "Version 23.01.13.1832" adding or creating a new ExPerfwiz datacollector, some counters are not added properly and thus data is missing in the resulting performance log. The list of counters are provided within the $xml131619 variable.
e.g.
<Counter>\.NET CLR LocksAndThreads( * )\Contention Rate / sec</Counter>

Use relog.exe -q Experfwiz.blg -o Experfwiz.txt and validate the text file for the list of counters.

• counters under the .NET CLR LocksAndThreads\Contention Rate / sec are missing completely.
• counters under the \W3SVC_W3WP\ object are added incorrectly and thus not collected properly.

Expected behavior
All counters added properly giving a perflog that contains the data you'd expect.

Script Output
n/a, no error.

Additional context
The issue is caused by the spaces around the * in '( * )' and can be fixed by replacing it with "(*)".

I would recommend using https://microsoft.github.io/CSS-Exchange/Performance/SimplePerf/ instead of ExPerfwiz in the meantime.

David, no problem as I can fix it myself easily by replacing the “( * )” with “(*)”. But thanks for pointing this out.
