If I don't fix this, what will happen? Will my computer have other problems?
If you choose not to fix this, applications that access this file simply will likely stop functioning for you. These error messages are often only the first indicators that your PC's operating system is in need of attention. Each program you add or remove to your computer makes small changes to your system files and registry entries. Over time, small errors and alterations compound and Windows is unable to make sense of the data. Correctly identifiying and remedying issues with a computer's operating system are tasks usually far beyond the average user's skill level.
