the winsock2 is not installed. in the recovery console I
just let it run, I'm not really following what you mean
by "What actions did you take...?"

 

[Dave Patrick]

Well nothing will happen unless you take some action. Such as restoring the
altered hive from a recent backup.

I have no recent backup. That's why I would like to know
how to reinstall the winsock completely.

Since you have no backups you're left with un-doing the damage manually or
reinstalling the operating system.

"un-do" the damage manually?

Using regedt32.exe you'll need to recreate the structure exactly as it was.
Hopefully you remember where and what the structure was.
