resources tab links not working

hi all,

my first Q here after 8 yrs away from SW

my resources tab links have just suddenly stopped working, eg tutorials, open document, whats new, copy settings wizard and many more. When I hover over them the curser changes and they get the automatic underline, I left click but absolutely nothing happens, no lock ups, no slowing, absolutely nothing!

I can access tutorials thro the top bar menu, help --> Solidworks Tutorial OK

any help much appreciated, I feel like a neeeewbie again :-)
