Windows 10: Certain games dont work?

This is very strange, i have a few games like CSGO, Garry's mod, SWTOR, etc, that wont work. When i open them, its only a black screen with a blue circle spinning cursor or the same thing but with a transparent window but when i restart my computer, the games work. So if they don't work, i restart my PC and then they work, and the next time i close and open my pc, they wont work, its been in this loop for a while now. I realized its mostly old games but i have no clue what could be causing this bizarre glitch.
