Hello I brought a new PC couple days back right and today I couldn't open my skype , task manager and other applications. I ran all my anti virus software which is mcafee and malwarebytes and they have found nothing !!

The programs I run EG : Task Manager , I run it CNTRL + ALT + DELETE and/or Right clicking the task bar > Task Manager. It loads yet I cannot see it however if I hover over it I see it working and moving (Process memory etc etc ). I attempt to end a process which I do and it works but I cannot see the program visibly on my main desktop its just stuck in the system tray.

Please help me since I cannot call people on skype, play various games and much more.
