Hey there,
I could use a hand, it would appear that my driver registry hive is corrupt. I plugged in a USB device this morning and was told "
The configuration registry database is corrupt." when I tried to get it to install the latest drivers (it popped up with a yellow ! in Device Manager which was already unusual). Then I looked at Windows Update and found it was attempting to install several drivers that have been around (and installed) for years, and noticed those drivers were no longer loaded up correctly in Device Manager.
Before beginning the instructions for posting, I wiped clean my CBS and DISM folders to get clean log files, but unfortunately when I ran them in Windows, they came back clean. SFCFix reported no errors either.
When I booted to the WinPE environment and ran them, I got the following:
sfc /scannow: "
Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operations."
dism /image:C:\ /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth: "
Error 1009 The configuration registry database is corrupt."
I've attempted to do an in-place repair using a matching ISO for my version of Windows 10 (Pro Build 1903 with September 2019 updates
except Feature Update to 1909). This is where things get interesting and where I've tracked the issue down to being the driver registry hive.

Many thanks for any assistance you can provide.
