Hey Missy,

In addition, you may go through this post.

The main reasons behind this problem is a corruption in the registry key which holds the value of the files which are executed while login to windows. This registry key can get either replaced with some incorrect value or it might get corrupt due to some virus / trojan activity.

See if you can fix this issue by running SFC (System File Checker) scan from Safe Mode.

Step 1: Run the computer in safe mode

For safe mode help, see: Start your computer in safe mode

Step 2: Run SFC Scan

This scans forany integrity issues with the system files and tries to repair the same. If the scan doesn't fix automatically, you can try repairing those files manually. Detailed information is available here:
