Hello bj57 and welcome to TSF,
You currently have 2 Anti Virus programs installed. (AVG Free and McAfee)While it may seem to be added protection for you, more than 1 Anti Virus can cause conflicts and confusion between the AV programs as well as system instability.
Please choose and run only 1 and uninstall the other via the Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel.
------------------------------------------------------------
Disable Windows Defender as it may interfere with the fix below:
- Open Windows Defender.
- Click on Tools, Options.
- Scroll down and uncheck Turn on real-time protection (recommended).
- After you uncheck this, click on the Save button and close Windows Defender.

Please

http://downloads.subratam.org/Fixwareout.exe
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/file...Fixwareout.exe- Save it to your desktop and run it.
- Click "Next", then Install, make sure "Run fixit" is checked and click Finish.
- The fix will begin: Please follow the prompts.
