when I try to open windows defender in the control panel I get an error message: Explorer.exe, windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. How do I correct this problem?

Windows Defender is a complete waste of resources. I suggest you disable the Windows Defender service and forget about it.

On that note...which i agree...if explorer.exe shows an error message he is most likely infected...to what extent we don't know...
