First, we need to backup your registry:
Please go to Start > Run
Paste in the following line:regedit /e c:\registrybackup.reg
Click OK.
It won't appear to be doing anything, that's normal.
Your mouse pointer may turn to an hour glass for a minute.
Please continue when it no longer has the hour glass.
Please open up Notepad and copy all of the items in the code box below.
Change the "Save As Type" to "All Files". Save it as fixthis.reg on your Desktop.
REGEDIT4 [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\explorer\mountpoints2\{7d768a73-479c-11d9-bb15-806d6172696f}]Now double-click fixthis.reg.
A window will come up asking if you want to let it merge with the registry.
Click yes.
You can delete this after it merges.
