I just got the same error, but it occurred for me after stupidly letting the launcher apply the latest patch. I tried patching manually only to find an error in the World Adventures patch (for region 1, at least). Might it be a hidden patching problem?
...
Did you read the part of the OP where I said I was patched up to date? It's not a patching issue and I don't use the launcher. My WA is region 2.

Did you try using CCleaner? If it really is a registry thing, that might clean it up. If it doesn't help and you do wind up uninstalling, it might be a good idea to run it before you reinstall, too.
I'm not confident in CCleaner, the last time I used it it wiped out not only long-dead registry values but it also wiped out half the registry values for my anti-virus and my PC got royally borked because my anti-virus started to make my PC bluescreen on startup when the info was noticed as missing.
I had this exact problem just a couple of weeks ago. CCleaner is no longer my friend. It didn't fix the problems I had (several old games that had been uninstalled ages ago yet still showed in Add/Remove Programs), and gave me a lovely BSoD that locked me out of my PC for more than a day and resulted in my missing a limited-time-offer interview for a job.*
*I now have a full-time temp job and may be getting a dream position starting next Monday elsewhere, so I forgive it the lost interview. I do not forgive it the lost time and frustration while I worried about how I was going to afford a new PC if things were irreparably borked whilst living on government cheese.

Strange!
I have been using CCleaner for a long time (running it, usually every couple of weeks or so) - with no problems. In fact I downloaded an update today and ran it. I later reloaded the system, also with no problems.
Maybe it is a conflict with CCleaner and a particular Aniti-Virus program. What AVs are you using. Also, are they up to date.
Mine, (PCguard) is specific to a cable company in the UK. It updates automatically every few hours - if necessary.

Avast/Comodo combo, with MalwareBytes used only for periodic full scans I do once a month during system cleaning.

I use 2010 norton...so not exactly a mom and pop indie AV. Can we stick to the thread issue though instead of derailing into CCleaner beefs?
