Cannot open "My Computer" icon
When I click on the My Computer icon, the desktop goes completely blank and then comes back up with the icons but Explorer will not open. If I right click on My Computer and select Explore, the same thing happens. Also, when trying to click on the Desktop tab in Display Properties, nothing happens. I have run mbam which shows no issues.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
