As far as I can recall, I have never updated any of the components
individually, only through the Creator update mechanism.

As I pointed out above, the error manifests itself when trying to run
an update through Creator.

I can't say I like the idea of a complete reinstall of the SDK to fix a
problem. That looks like a Microsoft way of fixing things!

Are there no flags representing an update state? I could amend one to
force a more major update to resolve the issue instead of the complete
reinstall.
