Hi, Try this thing.right click the task bar and go to file new task in the emerged bar, type explorer.exe and hit enterkey. The windows explorer will be there to see. Moreover, the windows explorer does not delete any thing and it is only a view option of the windows browsing.

         
The Bottom line is "Check your hardware first if it supports the task you try".

In continuation of my solution
Try the below work around:

1. Click Start, run, type "inetcpl.cpl" (with out quotation marks) and click
OK.
2. Click the Advanced tab.
3. Under Browsing, uncheck the "Enable third-party browser extensions
(requires restart)" check box.
4. Click OK.
If the third party extensions have any problem, this will fix the issue.This i had taken from the net advice and it has fixed

I would recommend you to  install malwarebytes to check for spywares in your pc.

Does it also happen when you go into safe mode?
