My Help and Support Service is missing from the list of Services. How can I

I imported the reg specified and the service still fails to appear.

I have no idea what you're talking about. You're replying to an old
thread and not quoting the previous text.

Do the following to resolve your problem:
Reinstall Help and Support service.

1. From a command prompt go to the "C:\Windows\pchealth\helpctr\binaries"
folder by typing:

CD \windows\pchealth\helpctr\binaries

2. Run the following commands one by one:

Start /w helpsvc /svchost netsvcs /regserver /install
net start helpsvc

This worked for me. Thank you.
Without this service running , it was preventing me from downloading new
updates.

I'm running Windows server 2003 and the service just disapppeared. These
instructions got my Help and Support services baack up and running.

Thanks again.
