Solved Deleted usmt.ppkg, nothing works anymore

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hi,

I have a computer with very little storage space (28GB).
I wanted to clear some space and I deleted the file usmt.ppkg (from C:\Recovery\Customizations).

After restarting the computer, I found out that I had no more mouse pointer, no more sound, and that the USB ports weren't working anymore.

I was able to recover my mouse pointer by updating the driver in Device Manager, but it doesn't work for the other issues.
I tried resetting the computer, but it doesn't work either (which I guess isn't surprising, since I messed with the Recovery folder...).

Anybody here knows how to fix this ?
Getting all the devices to work again would be great, but I would settle for being able to reset the computer.


Attached is a screenshot of my Device Manager.
My computer is an ASUS E200HA.
Windows 10 version 1607 (OS Build 14393.2214).

Thanks !

Some update: I made some more room on my computer to perform the Windows update to the 1903 version.
Below are the errors I got :

There were problems installing some updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this and want to search the web or contact support for information, this may help:

Any idea idea how to fix those ?

Download then run Speccy (free) and post the resultant url for us, details here, this will provide us with information about your computer hardware + any software that you have installed that may explain the present issue/s.

To publish a Speccy profile to the Web:

Speccy publishes the profile and displays a second Publish Snapshot. You can open the URL in your default browser, copy it to the clipboard, or close the dialog box.
 
Hi again,
I created a bootable USB and re-installed Windows from there. It worked, problem solved. Thanks for your answers !
Is there anything I should do to mark this question as "SOLVED" ?
