Windows 7 tray Notification Area Properties wont load

When I right click on the taskbar or tray area, and select properties, sometimes the start menu and taskbar properties window loads, and sometimes it does not load at all.
If it does load, When clicking on customize, nothing happens - the customize window does not load at all. So I have no way of customizing my tray icons to show/hide them.

I have ran MBAM deep scan, no malware present.
I have rebooted, ran sfc /scannow, however, not sure what to do with the files that it could not replace.

I have noticed that sometimes Software protection is not running, even though it is set to run 'Auto on Startup'. Starting this process manually does not help the tray icon issue, although it seems to stay running now.


Please advise on other steps i may take.
Thank you very much.
