Unless you do a totally clean reinstall (reformat, etc.), the problem might persist. Since Windows has lost its full association with the file, it's difficult to say exactly what would happen if you did a "repair" or "in-place" install, but you can try it if you want (back up you drive first just to be safe).

Did you run the filesystem check? If so, did it find any errors?

Please do not contact me by email or PM for help. We're all volunteers here, and only have so much free time to dedicate to our efforts.

However, if I've been working on a thread with you already, and seem to have "forgotten" your thread, please do send me a message. I try not to let things slip through the cracks, but it does happen sometimes.
