error code: 0x800b0001 & DirectX due to regsvr32 initpki.dll missing
got that error code whilst trying to run MS security essentials, and while trying to install directX i got the "regsvr32 initpki.dll is missing" error. i can give pictures if needed. please help. ive tried several things. i know my way around a computer, i went to school for this type of stuff but im stumped. i ran sfc /scannow and apparently i have some corrupt system files. which btw the scan was NOT able to complete. i dont know how to manually fix them so im at a loss with that as well. i can provide pictures if needed. my first post on this forum, so thanks in advance.
1. the first pic is what happens when i try and open MS security essentials
2. the second is when i try and get directX
3. the third is an update that i have tried numerous times to install with no luck (figured it could be connected in some way)
also i would very much like to be able to solve this WITHOUT having to reinstall my OS. thanks. much love
