I am trying to troubleshoot Error Code 1406 and the Key that is having problems is not even listed in my Registry Editor. I went into HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/classes/CLSID/... and scrolled through every Key. I cannot locate the one that is having the issue when I am installing...Where would I get this "key" ??

You need to replace the security on the Components key and let it propagate to the child keys. Post and error screenshot for sure, or any error logs that you have. It might be a different problem altogether.
