do you have any other user accounts on your pc??
does the issue occur in the other accounts??
if not other accounts, then create a new user account, log into the new one, transfer your files and settings to the new account and delete the old account, there may be a corruption in the old account that is causing this issue.
Or, you could run checkdisk:
