That sounds like you have some Windows issues - have you run any sort of diagnostics on your computer, or checked for any malware?

None that I can tell - but I am not an 'expert' in the sense that some things there could be malicious and masquerading as non-malicious files - they all look (superficially) benign to me.

If you have a memory problem you need to fix that first before you try anything else - without good hardware you cannot have a good computing experience.
