It began when my company's network suddenly wouldn't recognize my user/password to access the folders on the server. My network admin tried to reset my password and even created a new user for me. Inexplicably a new problem arose. Clicking icons on the desktop or the start menu stopped working. I found that opening the file location and clicking the .exe did work.
The problem remained when logging in as the local administrator.
I found that the problem occurs on all .LNK files.
System Restore to a month ago had no effect. Am I mistaken in believing that this proves that the problem isn't in the registry?
I did a full disk virus check using the ESET a/v software on the computer as well as with MalwareBytes. No effect.
Does anyone have any idea what to do? I'm out of ideas.
