    I have deleted all files which are associated with that program. I have restarted my computer and still experiencing the problem.

    I have noticed i can't even move around shortcuts or folders on my desktop.

    Right, let's try something...

    1, Click Start > All Programs > Accessories and right-click Command Prompt then Run as Administrator
    2, type sfc /scannow

    This will run a system file integrity check which will check to see if your system files are all ok, any changes made will be fixed and a reboot required.

    If that reports no issues then you may want to try

    Repair Install

    It will not affect any user files or programs installed

    Just a thought.
    You could try a System Restore to a point before the problem started.
    System Restore

    Make sure you check mark the box in lower left corner if you need more points in picture below.
    Step #7
    NOTE: Check the Show other restore points box to see any restore points (older) that may not be listed here

    I recreated what i though caused it and i tried to update INVedit and it gave me this error:

    Code:
    "The given key was not present in the dictinary."
    Now ever since that i can't drap and drop files.

    Might be an idea to look @ post #12 and try the repair install

    Now that is strange

    Does the application run in the background once you have it open or is it a foreground app? E.g. it's only actually in use if it's the current active Window.
