Please can someone help me out here I'm getting so frustrated with this problem. Every time I click on something in explorer I get another window opened. I have the folder options set to the correct setting. That is, "open each folder in same window". If someone nice enough to take the time to provide me with a solution to this aggravation would please provide some STEP BY STEP instructions for this I would very much appreciate it.
 
Solution
Running the System File Checker has been known to fix that problem:

Open a command prompt window (Start > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt)

Type SFC /SCANNOW

Press <Enter>

Also, if you've installed one of those third-party Windows Explorer replacements, uninstall it. They are often a source of such issues.

Ok I may have another problem... I just hit Start, typed "ipconfig" and then hit enter and I caught a very brief glimpse of a command prompt window and that was it. Just a flash. Any ideas on why that would happen?

Ok I did the cmd, sfc/scannow which has completed but I am left with this message in the black cmd window.

"Verification 100% complete.
Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them.

Details are included in the CBS.Log windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example
C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log

C:\Windows\system32>"

So I honestly could be reading another language basically so please SOMEONE HELP ME!!!
