Win 7 personalize options broken

Hey, kids -
Wondering if any of you have seen this kind of action before - it seems like my personalize service or function or what have you has been completely hidden:
As you see, the traditional icon in the right-click menu is garbled, and clicking it or the personalize header or the "Change the theme" option does nothing. Changing sound effects or screen saver is fine, as those pop up older dialog boxes. Clicking on Change desktop background or Change window glass colors result in other errors:
I'm still googling around, but was just wondering if anybody else had seen it. A couple random threads sounds like I'll need to do a repair install of some kind. I'll update if I figure anything out.

(assuming d: is the drive in relation to your recovery partition. You can check this by typing the following in the cmd prompt If you see your typical C:\ root folder contents, you are good.
Other ways I can handle this?
Tried a reg clean with CCleaner, noticed Windows Update and IE were also both crashing when trying to start them. Something is sincerely wrong here, so I'm going for an inventory, wipe, and reinstall.
To anybody that finds this thread in the future, sorry I was unable to find a less nuclear option.
