Thanks, understand now.

What happens when you click on Control Panel in the Start Menu? Does anything happen?

How is it setup in Start Menu, Properties?



If it's as I show, change it to Display as menu then click OK.
Go back and click Display as link and click OK.

See if that helps.

How do i access that menu? The one your showing me in the attached image?

One fix I found is to run sfc /scannow from a Elevated Command Prompt.

See here: SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

currently using it. I will respond back if the problem has been solved or for anything further.

Unfortunately it didn't resolve the problem. I might as well format my computer because the OS is horrible currently.

Agree this would be a good choice. If you do, please follow Greg's tutorial: Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7

It will give you the best install you can get.

Alright thanks.
