Can't start, reinstall or uninstall Microsoft Security Essentials after virus

I have a user that was infected with a rogue AV virus last week. I ran Malwarebytes to perform the cleanup and after rebooting she is now receiving an error when the MSE tries to initialize. The error is 0x80073b01. If I try to uninstall MSE, it tells me that it cant find the necessary installation files and to download and reinstall. If I download and try to reinstall, it tells me there is already a copy of MSE installed and it stops the installation process.

I've done tons of research on google and I can't find a solution that works for getting this cleaned out and reinstalled properly.

Any ideas?
