Since last Saturday, I've been unable to save any images, or open ones that I have already saved. When I right click on an image and click Save, nothing happens. I can copy the picture to Paint and Photoshop, but when I try to save, Paint closes and Photoshop just sits there. When I click Open in Paint it also closes. I can open pictures that are listed in the File option but none in my folders.
The problem is the same if I go through My Computer. When I try to open an image, My Computer crashes. A friend thought I had a virus. A couple of days ago I completely wiped my laptop of any viruses, but the problem is still there.
Please, if anyone has any information to help me I'll be eternally grateful.

nin06, You may want to try the File Association Fixes for the file extensions you're having the problem with at the link below.

Hi, I went onto the first link you gave me and added fixes for JPG, GIF, MPG/MPEG and REG, but nothing had changed.
