Hi
Your Cryptographic Service is most likely running fine, renaming or deleting
the Catroot2 folder is most likely what you need to do to solve the problem.
Take a look here:
cryptographic service error and how to fix it
http://www.updatexp.com/cryptographic-service.html
alternatively:

The Catroot2 problem can be avoided in the future by installing Q817287.
