    services.msc is not a valid Win32 application


    I first lost the Netflix Icon in the Media center. After many setup tries I got that back and then lost the TV tuners and could not reload them. When I checked services I got this message" services.msc is not a valid Win32 application".
    I have to assume the reason I can't setup the Tuners is caused by Services.msc.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated

    Please start by running these bootable hardware diagnostics:
