Windows 10: Browsers not opening

Ever since I installed the most recent windows update, I haven't been able to open any internet browser except for Microsoft edge. I have tried this with both google chrome and opera and they will open for about a split second and then immediately close itself. I have tried restarting my pc twice and I have tried running them in administrator mode but nothing seems to be working.
