Hello,

I tried to go through Task Manager, New Task (RUN), and typed in explorer, clicked ok, and got an error "C:\Windows\explorer.exe is not a valid Win32 application." What can I do to fix this, because when I reboot my computer, the desktop is completely not visible. I can access everything through the task manager, but thats it. That is the only way for me to access anything on my computer. My start button is not visible either, everything you would normally see on a desktop, I don't. It's just completely black, can you help me please.
