Do you have any complete backups of this machine? Since your components hive is corrupted beyond repair I'm wondering if there is an uncorrupt version laying around on an old backup?
Also, do you know how far back your restore points go on your computer? Do you know how to check?
I may have a system back up, however it may be couple years old. It was taken almost immediately after moving from Win 8 to Win 10.
There seem to be only 4 restore points: from 12/12/2016, 7/21/2017. 7/28/2017 and 8/6/2017.
I can get a new disk and load the new windows 10 upgrade on that disk. However, I will need to install all my software all over again. Also there will the issue of migrating my license key to the new install.
Download and run the following program. See if you can pick the 2016 restore point and browse to c:\windows\system32\config ShadowExplorer.com - Downloads
