Do you have office 2013 installed? It can cause this.
Unfortunately I have this problem too and it is driving me crazy. Do you by coincidence also have the problem of your folder view settings not saving? For example, open a folder, change the view settings to something different, go to different folder and then back, has it reverted to something else?
I have a suspicion it is somehow connected
After some googling I found this method and it worked for me: LINK
Do the following& they will disappear
Win+R -> Type in "msinfo32" press Enter.
Now you will see the following Console Window.
MSinfo32 console
In the left pane navigate to components ->Network -> Adapter Here you can see all the Network Adapters listed Find the TAP adapters and see the Driver location as shown in the below image
Location of TAP adapter driver
I have given a sample image as i have already deleted the TAP adapters. Don't delete the Microsoft Adapters. Find the Tap adapters location in listed adapters & go to the location for example: "C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\TAP.sys" and delete them.
After this Just Go to device Management and uninstall the TAP adapters under Network Adapters.
Note: While uninstalling tick the option "Delete the Driver" if asked for a prompt.
That's it u r done
