As time went on I realized this did not fix the issue. I restored the machine to an earlier vision and then restored the databases and that did work. This is a virtual machine this made restoring very easy.
Started getting this error* the other day. I look on line and searched but could not come up with anything that fixed it.
*An I/O operation initiated by the Registry failed unrecoverably. The Registry could not read in, or write out, or flush, one of the files that contain the system’s image of the Registry.
Seeing it was an I/O error and I saw something on Microsoft saying something about disk operations I thought why not try a chkdsk /f and sure enough that fixed it. I took a re-boot because this was the system drive but it worked.

The subject is fully clear but why does the text lack clarity? But in general your blog is great.

Maybe because I am an engineer and not a writer. It is clear enough if someone knows a little they can find it useful.
