    Me too. Now I'll just look around to see who can reinstall Windows at the best price. At least it's cheaper than buying a new laptop. Thanks

    I’ve found that Best Buy is only good for warranty replacements

    The laptop is 2 years old and I bought it at Sam's Club. I know Best Buy will charge $150 if I save the data and $200 if they do it. I already moved everything i want to keep to a flash drive so I'll call a couple of local computer repair shops tomorrow and ask their price.

    You don't have a hidden "D:/" drive with the install files on it?

    Have you tried to restoring your computer to a time before you experienced these problems?

    I haven't reinstalled Chrome but it does the same thing with Edge and Firefox. I saved everything that I need too keep do I'm just going to have to reinstall Windows. What pisses me off is that they don't give you a Windows disc when you buy s computer anymore and the problem I have prevents me from downloading it from Microsoft so now I'll have to pay somebody to do it.

    Will try the restore. I didn't know the D drive had the install files. I have a D drive but it's not hidden.
