Can you not use a "System Restore Point" from before the issue started happening? if you don't have a system restore setup, please try sfc/scannow

You might want to try this fixit tool from Microssoft 

I think its something to do with this registry key

Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDesc​riptions]

<input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="Y4ZDLXGFS4F8Q">
<input type="image" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/GB/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal — The safer, easier way to pay online.">
