When you merged the .reg file did you restart the PC and try to start the Service?

 

[chand]

Try this
Click rb:, click Control Panel, click Programs, and then click Turn Windows features on or off

Uncheck the Windows Search feature inside " Turn Windows Features On or Off " . Restarted the computer. Turned it back on inside Turn Windows Features on or off
