The error message says "Failed to download NI_FPGA_Interface.lvlib:NIFPGA CounterEncoderSourceConvertion.lvlib:LVSourceTypeT oFPGAType.vi" which implies that the VI was not downloaded for some reason. Without knowing anything about how it really works, I could speculate that perhaps the vi on the cRIO had gotten set to read only, or its directory entry was somehow corrupted to the point where it couldn't be replaced by the download attempt.

I don't really see why reimaging the cRIO would solve the issue.
I don't see why either, but LabVIEW couldn't download that vi immediately before reimaging and did download it immediately afterwards. I consider that to be highly compelling evidence that the reimaging indeed fixed the problem.
