I get the above error each time windows Vista boots up. The program is AVG anti-virus Control Center. I think I know whats preventing AVG to load but don't know the solution. When I disable UAC I have no problem and all loads as it should. When I re-enable UAC is when this message appears.... but I can run AVG Control Center manually from within that message. My question is, is there a...

I've run sfc /scannow, and it can't replace perfmon.msc (although it does recognize that it is corrupted). I read around a bit and tried manually replacing it by copying the stored perfmon.msc from the winsxs directory, but that didn't help. I've tried creating a new perfmon.msc by opening...
