After doing some research I have managed to fix this problem and wanted to share it with others. I am not sure if this makes a difference, but I found that it seems to have something to do with installations or upgrades that change *.cpl files in the c:\windows\system32 directory. The tip that I found is that it may be that you have malware installed on your computer. The advise I found was to use some sort of antispyware or antimalware software to clean your computer.
