Hello D Mitaal,

We're sorry to hear this.
Please uninstall AVG AntiVirus Free and check whether you can open other programs.

We're sorry to know that. This isn't the usual behavior of AVG Free Antivirus. 
If you suspect that AVG is causing the issue, you can temporarily disable the AVG protection to check.
