OK, so what I propose to do next, is to patch one of the Registry keys we last patched, using a different tool, so that we can see if that "takes".
Please note ... this will reboot your computer on completion of the Registry patch.
Download FRST64 to your Desktop.
Next ....
Once your computer has rebooted, please post me a new copy of your COMPONENTS hive, so I can check whether the patch was successful or not ...
Please post me the link to the file

- Download the attached fixlist.txt and save it to the same location as FRST (must be in same folder or it won't process).
- NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user. Running it on another machine may cause damage to your operating system
- Now press the Fix button once and wait.
- FRST will process fixlist.txt
- When finished, it will produce a log fixlog.txt in the same folder/directory as FRST64.exe
- Please post me the log
