There is an explorer.exe trojan than will do strange things such as what
you are seeing. Explorer.exe, the only real one, is in C:\Windows. Any
other in C:\Windows\system32 (for example) or any other location is a
trojan. It is best to boot into Safe Mode, search for explorer.exe and
remove any that are not in C:\Windows.
 
Go to Administrative tools, then services and restart the Software Licensing
Service.
Don't know why it works but it does.
