What I did in a somewhat similar situation was to "export" the whole
registry from a healthy computer onto a flash memory key or another portable
device and after plugging it into a USB port on the sick computer I
"imported" the whole registry into it. I have done it a couple of times
getting an error message every time that the process could not be completed.
Nonetheless, all the mutilated registers were somehow repaired after all.
