  1. What is happening with my computer?


    Something is wrong with my computer today. When I tried to log on, I got a long wait, a black screen, and some message from something called ShellHelper.exe saying something about "unknown exception error." I tried looking this up, I found that it could either be malware, or some kind of user account error (?).


    ShellHelper.exe Application Error

    The exception unknown software exception (0xe0434352) occurred in the application at location 0x0000000077219AB2.

    After hearing it could be malware, I tried starting up in safe mode to run a virus scan. While I did boot up to safe mode, I can't get Windows defender to run. Whenever I start the program, I just get a blank screen. Not completely blank; it looks like windows defender is supposed to, but all the options are just gone. I went to control panel to try turning it on from there, only to get a message simply telling me "Windows Security Center Service can't be started".

    What is going on here?!? I normally use Comodo Antivirus (which also isn't starting), is that interfering with Windows Defender here? Why is this error happening in the first place?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    It could also happen because of network issue. I suggest you to try with different network connection and check if it helps.
