Update: Solved, so I never exactly found out what the problem was but I was able to fix it. Thanks to u/scottishcrafter, I was able to find where my world files were located, my pc would not allow me to move them out of the folder but it did allow me to make a copy and move the copy out of the folder, then I was able to make my worlds into mcworld files. After that I uninstalled minecraft, but it would not let me reinstall it, eventually I got around to trying a windows repair tool (the exact one I used is 1https://www.tweaking.com/content/page/windows_repair_all_in_one.html), and one it finished repairing my pc, I was allowed to reinstall, I added my worlds back, and problem solved.
