No programs open/start

I've recently had my laptop wiped due to a trojan. After I got it back I had multiple crashes due to a bad driver install and I had to have another wipe to fix that as well. Now I'm having an issue to where almost none of my programs that worked flawlessly before the virus will run. For instance, if I double click my WoW launcher I get the loading circle for a second or two and then it just stops trying to open it. I've had this issue with a lot of programs, including: WoW, Chrome, Windows Live Messenger, Windows Live Mail, Starcraft and a few others. I've watched the task manager while launching these programs and see that they TRY to launch, but very shortly after they appear(I'm talking one second), another process appears alongside it called "Werfault.exe *32" and then about 3 seconds later, they both just quit. I notice that I can start a couple of them up with extreme perseverance, patience and right-clicking "Run as Administrator" a few times. I would be extremely grateful for any assistance on this matter.

P.S. I run defrags and virus checks regularly, and I've used an online service(Glarysoft) to fix my registries

Its possible the registry cleaning has messed up program installs or the "wipes" may have done it. While OS files can be repaired with sfc scans or a repair install, theres unfortunately no package fix for 3rd party apps. Run a sfc scan 3-4 times to fix corrupted system files.

SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

if that doesnt help, you can even try a repair install.

Repair Install

But for individual apps, you need to either fix them or reinstall them.

Also, try running a clean boot procedure to check for bad drivers.

Holy poop, talk about a prompt response! O.O I'll get right to trying those suggestions, thanks!

I mean a "Great, I have to reinstall EVERYTHING! Hope I don't forget something importan-OH BUGGER!" wipe

Well, I ran a driver update check and it seems to have fixed my issue, for now at least haha. Thanks for the help, it definitely ended up pointing me in the right direction : )

There are only two reasons for such problem either it can be a virus problem or you need to get driver update.

Guess what's started happening again with nothing out of the ordinary done, no viruses found, and all drivers updated...

I think the thing that makes me angriest about the matter is this: I get that it finds a problem with the program running. I get that it shuts it down. The thing that infuriates me is that it doesn't tell me what the flipping problem is so I can at least TRY to fix it
