Right Click the window button.
From the menu select Command Prompt (Admin)
Allow this to run (click yes)
You will get a black and white does window
Type sfc /scannow and enter
(N.B. There are 2 letter N in scannow)
Wait 20 mins or so.
It will repair any corruption in system files.
Email should work fine after that.
