OK this happened on both on my computers. Specifically my gaming computer tonight. And my other computer a month ago. A month ago I put Linux on because I couldn't figure out. So I was able to save my computer by doing a restore but I am just curious what would make the desktop do that?
Thanks.
Gawd, I almost had a heart attack tonight. So, do not need to lose my computer files on my reports, and plus I have to take my tests.

It could be that Explorer.exe isn't running, is corrupt, or is missing. It may also have something to do with your System32 file.

It is more than likely explorer.exe acting up.
Here's what you do:
1. Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete to start Task Manager.
2. In the top right, click "File", and select "New Task (Run...)"
3. Type "explorer.exe" minus the quotations, and hit Enter.
Hopefully this works. It used to work on Windows XP, but I'm fairly certain it will work on Vista or 7 as well.
