Not really sure. Don't re-install everything, that's unlikely to help.

Did you change or update your virus settings recently? It might be an issue with scanning or restricting programs that look at other programs. Play around with the settings, see if you can disable scanning on certain directories that your are trying to open and having problems with.

If you don't have virus software, get some and do a scan.
