Cannot access the laptop and Skype settings

Original title: cannot start laptop settings and other applications

Good evening

I have some problems with Windows 8. I used to have a problem with what appeared to be shortcuts that arises simply any key I pressed on the keyboard, so a friend of mine helped me by changing a few things on PC settings (do not know what she did do). Given that (not sure if precisely from that day) that I can not open the PC settings, or even Skype... help please?

Thank you
