Reinstalling / Rebuilding COM+ on Windows 2008

Unlike on Windows 2003 it is not possible to Reinstall/Rebuild COM+ on Windows 2008 without effectively reinstalling the operating system. Before undertaking such an extreme step the question of why COM+ needs to be installed should be addressed.

A common reason for this is due to the errors shown below:

For example:
The COM+ Event System detected a bad return code during its internal processing.  HRESULT was 800700e6 from line 45 of d:\longhorn\com\complus\src\events\tier \eventsystemobj.cpp.  Please contact Microsoft Product Support Services to report this error.

To address this issue without reinstalling the OS, consider reviewing the registry key:
               “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\EventSystem”
