Right click it. go to start, programs menu, scroll until you find it and right click
it, select run as administrator. Reopen.

Most likely a malware infection blocking it. The smart ones prevent common removal
tools from running and block access to removal sites. Try running it in safe mode,
if that fails I would go to a malware removal forum for help.

Could be file corruption. To fix that run CHKDSK /r, this has worked for me many
times. Or right click drive->Properties->Tools->Check for errors, repair files
