    Deleted unknown user hkey classes root, windows broke


    Hi! So i did something stupid. At the permissions of HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, I deleted the unknown user s-1-15-.....I later realized I shouldn't have done that. My windows broke, i cant access folders and files, cant get to start, to recovery or start or anything else. I wanted to add it again, but I cant find the account to add. Under all the other HKEYs the unknown account is still active. How do I add it again? I use Wndows 10.Really hope to hear from you.Ashnie

    :)
