Default [Pending] Windows Explorer problems

So installed a new program I found out that the explorer.exe thing in task manager closed itself. So now I cant do anything on my computer without explorer.exe. Theres no start menu or desktop so ive been running everything through task manager. haha
I thought the problem might have been a virus in the program I installed but AVG free antivirus never finds anything . Whenever I manually start explorer.exe using run program everything works for about 5 seconds and then the task closes itself again. System REstore doesn't do anything either. Need HElp Really dont wanna reformat my hard drive.THANK YOU people ahead of time
