Windows 10: Critical error windows

Hello, I have a problem on my laptop. This fall semester, our class started coding in C++ and we are using desktop docker and Visual Studio. About 2 weeks ago my computer started not properly working. When I turned on the laptop, the screen turned black and the cursor was there. I waited about a minute and everything showed up and File Explorer is not responding to my requests. So I uninstalled the latest updates and restarted my laptop. Now I press Windows, the laptop is showing a critical error and file explorer is not working. I tried src /scannow, safe mode reboot but nothing helped at all

Windows 10 Critical error on start button

I have run the system file check (sfc), DISM and the second step as suggested above and still cannot use the start button in Windows 10. The "critical error" message no longer appears but that's all.
