"Windows Problem Reporting"

When I open task manager I see that there are at least 500 "Windows Problem Reporting" tasks running. 

I don't know what's causing this, but it's been like this for about 2 months now. They appear immediately after startup. What's causing this and how do I get rid of this?

    No changes were made that hadn't been made before. Computer is up-to-date. I've uninstalled programs that I no longer use. I've also tried creating another account on the computer and logging in on that after restarting, but after a few minutes, all of the "Windows Problem Reporting" processes are there.
