General Computer Support / Re: desktop and taskbar at startup

UPDATE - After all was well, I decided to try the mouse again BOOM 
the system failed again like before. Thank God I created a restore point before doing that. I'm back, I think and well. How can this be and should I be leary of buying another mouse for my laptop.

I decided to run the all in one again. this time I disconnected my laptop mouse (GearHead) (as per seven forums) booted in safe mode with networking and ran the program. I seen a lot of errors and missing files that were repaired. After reboot, my Menus for the affected programs worked, I was able to enter ID key for Malware Bytes and that program is fine. My icons worked in taskbar and desktop.
I noticed that installer.exe was missing among other errors. I am running a full system scan right now, I haven't connected the mouse yet
I will reboot several times before I try to boot with the mouse connected, it is possible that an update of the mouse gave me the infection I believe.
I will check back after multiple boot configurations. I will definitely donate to tweaking.com what a great program and your help was most appreciated thank you all.

Microsoft tech had me do sfc and check disk, actually I knew more than the tech I believe. I am thinking a dll file is missing or corrupt. I wish I had more input as to ideas.

Thank you for your response, I tried the fix it tool and no problems were found. I also did the tweaking.com all-in-one tool and although it seems better the problem isn't resolved. Something is preventing the taskbar icons from executing at startup, and even more concerning is the menus, and not being able to render my license for malware bytes has me worried more. I ran a sfc/scannow and all files are where they are supposed to be, spent an hour online with Microsoft tech support without success.

The programs affected do not work in safe mode, I did delete my premium Malware Bytes and have installed the free version. Opening window works for update and scan, but all other menu items like settings and history do not, plus the activate window comes up but I cannot enter ID key.
Last night I chose to unhide my taskbar, this morning after windows booted I clicked on my icons in the taskbar and nothing happened, I clicked on the trial version icon of MB on my desktop and it worked. After the program rendered my screen flashed and the icons in the taskbar are working. This has happened before, but some days none of the icons work.
Really strange, one of my programs (google earth) where the menu wasn't working worked for a short time, but now the menu shortcuts are grayed out and I can't close the program. It seems the header of these programs are corrupt.

Windows boots, the desktop icons and/or taskbar icons won't execute. The only way to make the desktop work is to control-alt-delete and then I have to click cancel twice. I have 2 programs after that where the menu shortcuts will not work. My malware bytes Premium stopped working, I contacted their support DL trial version, it will update and scan, but will not let me enter my ID key info. MB support cannot figure out the problem. I DL your All-in-one and ran it but it did not correct the problem, I am at a loss.
I do not have a Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium disc to reload OS. MSE did delete a browser hijacker program, and Malware Bytes hasn't found any thing on my machine.
