So recently ive been having dota 2(steam video game) crash or freeze at main screen right after i start it.
On top of that VLC keeps crashing and so does Windows Media Player. :/ 
Also the Icons were glitching for a bit while WMP was frozen/crashed before i used the task manager to end it.

Blacklight retribution(steam video game) works just fine.
GPU Drivers up to date, updates updated. Recently ran a full windows defender scan.

Would really appreciate some help in diagnosing why im having issues and how to fix them.

Thanks,
1MB

Just in case anyone runs into the same problem, it was my gpu fan software causing issues, (aka MSI afterburner and then evga precision x16 installed at different times)

After uninstalling them everything works like normal
