I finally found system restore and found an earlier date that worked. It put everything back like it was supposed to.Only went back to the 29th,so not off too far. Can't imagine what happened,but I want to thank all who tried to help me even with the misspelled word.Sorry if I did not have all the answers for your questions.At 84 I'm not very tech qualified
