=====================================
I have not seen this issue discussed before but
maybe these KB articles will offer some clues:

Default RE: Missing Snap-In

Change into your windows\system32 directory. Your windows
directory will be either windows or winnt. Type:
cd \windows\system32


Register the defrag components, by typing:
regsvr32 dfrgsnap.dll
regsvr32 dfrgui.dll


worked for me
