Nothing opens on my computer, for example PDFs, word docs, Mozilla, etc.. Shut down and restarted multiple times. Got to the internet through Microsoft Edge, which apparently does work. Tried updating Mozilla several times and it stops midway. This all started when I clicked yes to do the Mozilla update. Since then, nothing has worked.

hi, next to the security software already in place, please run a scan with various other security tools like the free version of malwarebytes, adwcleaner & eset online one-time scanner.
