I would try this free tool Free Registry Tool be sure to set a restore point prior to using it .

It has helped me in the past, so good luck:)

I would try a registry cleaner & a malware scan.

There can be many events which may have resulted in the registry errors. An incomplete installation, an incomplete uninstall, improper deletion of applications or hardware.

 It can also be caused if your computer is recovered from a virus or adware/spyware attack or by an improper shutdown of the computer. All the above actives may result in the deletion or corruption of the entries in the windows registry. This corrupted registry will lead to the missing and wrongly linked information and files.

You can Clean out the Registry using a reg cleaner, try running a Malware scan. Most of the fixes point towards using system restore but I don't think that's an option for you at this point.

I would give this Thread some time for additional answer's.
