All of a sudden, my Win 7 64 bit PC started running slow and applications don't load and ctrl-alt-delete does not work.

I have to do a hard reset by pressing the reset button on the PC.

Webroot and Malwarebytes don't turn up any malware/viruses

I mainly run Adobe cc apps, Chrome, Office

I can't find any common activities that are common

Thank you
 
Solution
Look in your control panel/installed programs for anything you do not recognize.
Particularly those installed recently.

Another option would be to use system restore to reset your pc to a time when all was well.
