NOTE: I disabled the Areas extension and it appears to have fixed things. I am leaving this open as I would like to find out what I am doing wrong or if it might be a code issue.

    There's an argument that the extension could mark the custom group reserved or prevent someone deleting it if it's required for the extension to function. If you uninstall and re-install the extension I expect now it would recreate the fields.

  • @Demerit I believe your answer is the best that will come and completely solved my issue as I had Disabled and not Uninstalled. It fixed the issues I had and I simply added a custom field set to an existing area where it best applied. There is no Accept Answer yet and I will check it for this when it appears. Thanks again!
