Windows update is not working and after looking through some posts this seems to be related to a Components hive being empty. Now I am afraid to reboot this machine since it crashed and had to rebuilt. Am I screwed? Or what are my options?

Click to expand... Thank you sir. I guess do you have any hints or info into how I can do this without formatting the whole thing? Any help would be apperciated
