OK, we need to do several things in a certain order. If you don't understand what you should do, stop and ask.
It's also important to not restarts computer between steps 1-3.
Step 1:
Click Start > Search for regedit > right click on regedit.exe > select Run as Administrator
Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, and look for a subkey called COMPONENTS
If you find it, jump to part one of the fix. If you do not find it, you must make it appear:
Single click on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
go to the File Menu > Load Hive... > navigate to C:\Windows\System32\config > select the COMPONENTS file (the one without a file extension - i.e. NOT COMPONENTS.log or similar, just COMPONENTS >
Click Open > Give it a key name of COMPONENTS > OK. (This is very important to load file under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE as COMPONENTS )
Step 2:
Backup the registry:
- Please download, install and run ERUNT - The Emergency Recovery Utility
- Click OK in Welcome! screen.
- ERUNT will starts backup, I'm suggesting to keep defaults sets and click OK!
- When prompted, click YES to create a new folder.
- Wait for the end of backuping process. Click OK! when popup shows.
Step 3:
