A week ago I did a clean install using a disk I made from an IPO of 17063. That was the latest install disk I had that would do a full install, and not just an update. It worked, and continues to do so. Windows Update has also worked following the install, and I'm up to 17112 at this point. It's been a grueling process, but I've finally gotten most of my programs reinstalled, and everything's pretty much back to normal.
When doing the install, the installer created a copy of my old system under C:\Windows.old, and from there I could totally replace my "Users" directory. I just copied and pasted it, and that included my "AppData" directory, which contained most of the settings from programs. When I reinstalled them, the settings were there.
