First off you got the wrong forum , secondly If i were you I'd go to an official windows forum, you'd have more luck there. Also I'd try restoring your computer to an earlier time and see if that helps.

Probably a virus and/or spyware. Once you're at this much of a mess, it's usually better to reinstall Windows.

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

I have a great idea. Forget internet explorer! Download Google Chrome. It is a million times faster, and doesn't take so much time to start up. I use it, and I love it. As for your problem in the first place, I have no clue. Maybe a missing file?

The road I cruise is a bitch now, baby.
