Power BI Desktop Starting Issues

I was recently working on Multilingual Report in POWER BI so i downloaded .Net Frameworks for Translations Builder(tool).
after i deleted .Net as the tool was throwing errors, my power bi is not working as well. also my other programs such as SSMS isnt starting. i tried reparing .Net and also reinstalled it to supported versio but i cant find any fix on the onternet regarding this issue. Posting a Screenshot. this error pops up as soon as i start program. Quick help will be appreciated. Thanks.
