The only "fix" I have found in stubborn cases is a repair or fresh install of Windows. 
 Sometimes a repair doesn't work if a corrputed registry entry, and sometimes a rogue 
entry is loaded back into the system.  In that case, only a new install of Windows 
has to be done.  Just my experience...

The only possible fix sometimes is system restore to a time when it worked correctly, 
if you can still go back that far.  Also try it in safe mode and see if you can read 
them.
