"There is no script engine for file .exe" error
I was having trouble connecting to the internet on my Alienware Alpha after removing a large amount of maleware and Adware. Any time I would try to connect to the wifi i would get an error saying that windows was having trouble running something called run.vbs. I looked this error up online and found a fix saying to do the following:
1. Open regedit.
2. navigate to software/microsoft/windows
3. Change the "run.vbs" to "userinit.exe"
4. Reboot
After preforming this and rebooting, I get the error "There is no script engine for file .exe". Sometimes this happens after the computer allows me to login and sometimes it doesnt let me login at all. Please help me find a fix for this. I have a lot of important files and projects I really dont want to lose in a reformat.

Although my comment is completely correct, I believe McKnife;s recommendation to re-install the OS is the proper one... I wouldn't want to trust this installation either.
