And lastly, scan your computer for viruses. There are many forms of viruses that can affect your computer performance. If you find any, quarantine or delete it immediately.
Dear Iris Coulter,
The error that you described in your posting shows that your computer is infected with a virus. The Explorer is a file which new files open onto. Your Explorer.exe file is infected with a virus. You can find this file in the C:WINDOWS folder. You should scan your computer now to fix this problem. You cannot repair the file without scanning it. Choose an antivirus software and scan your computer. Thanks.
