But if the item has been deleted, will it bring it back?Have you considered going back in time Zowie? System restore might get you back to a point when it worked?
Would that be the AMD Catalyst Control Center, or the Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel? I have a "Graphics Properties" option.Which display adapter do you use? Have you the latest driver for it? Is there some kind of settings option when you right click on the desktop background?
Don't know, but look through them and play with settings like "Acceleration", if it is on switch it off. Do it one by one, undo every change before going to the next one. You might find the solution.Would that be the AMD Catalyst Control Center, or the Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel? I have a "Graphics Properties" option.
Try uninstalling it (again sorry) and then use either one of the links found here in this thread. Perhaps it has something to do with the explanation in this link?

But I can't seem to locate Window's Essentials to uninstall it, now.Ok try this, uninstall windows essentials.
Reboot and create a system restore point.
Download Ccleaner and run the registry cleaner making sure you create a back up of the original registry when prompted.
Reboot again and then look in the start menu for command prompt, right click on it and run as admin. Type:
sfc /scannow
Press enter and await results
Reboot once the scan has finished and then try installing the latest version of Essentials/Moviemaker.
Normally I wouldn't recommend using a registry cleaner but as we are getting no where it might be worth a try.
