I hate to say this, Jan, but multiple unrelated problems such as you are experiencing typically have one of two causes:

1- Making unwise changes to a computer, such as those resulting from the use of a registry cleaner, or
2- Infection by a virus or other malicious software.

May I suggest you post again, and describe specifically what happens when you try to change your wallpaper or open Help and Support. I recommend making a separate post for each issue.

Also look at Event Viewer for possible explanations of what's going on.

Can anyone tell me why I can no longer access websites from Favourites, open the Search window, change my wallpaper, open Help and Support (I'm using a friend's computer right now) and use Windows defragmenter facility?
I have downloaded System Mechanic 7 very recently, hoping to solve these issues, but it didn't. Thank you
