Corrupt installation, re-install says it's already installed (maya 2016)

Hi! I need maya desperately for my college and recently I opened maya only to find a error that a dll file was missing (cannot show you the exact error). I don't know how that error got there considering i use maya frequently and haven't changed anything about it.

I then decided to reinstall maya, and tried uninstalling it at programs and features, to no success. Nothing was launched when i click change/uninstall there.

So I decided to manually delete all maya files and registry entries. Redownloaded the autodesk installation assistant for maya 2016. The installation wizard kept telling me over and over again that it was already installed. I tried CCleaner aswell, no change

 

Anything left that i might be able to try without having to restore my computer?

Managed to repair it with the alternate download assistant then run the maya installation wizard that repairs your installation, but still has the missing dll errors, adlmint.dll is missing
