Sounds like an error within the OS.

Run this command in the Command Prompt, as administrator:

sfc /scannow

and Windows will look at its critical system files and if it finds any issues it will fix them. You may have to run it multiple times if there are a lot of issues.

That's about all I can think of, hope I helped.

By the way, nobody is going to be able to access that link. It points to a file on your local hard drive which no one can connect to.
