Windows 10: Critical Errors after update

My computer woke up this morning after an update. I have no data files. I have no printer drivers my restore points are all gone. It's like I just bought the computer. I have a backup drive and can put things back, but this is the second time I seem to have lost everything. The restore takes hours. What in the world could be causing such a catastrophic event.


The error is Cannot sign into windows please try again. Nothing changes when I do this.

Critical Structure Corruption Windows 10

I keep getting this error "Critical Structure Corruption" and can't seem to fix it.

It happens while I am busy on my laptop. Here are some of the steps I have tried so far to resolve this with no success.

1. Ran Windows Memory Diagnostic = no problems so RAM looks good.
   
2. Check The CPU with Intel-Processor-Diagnostic-Tool = PASS all
   
3. Drivers update, I used driver booster and did need to update 18 drivers but was able to update with no issues.
   
4. Update software and drivers, well it was suggested that I update BlueStacks but the update failed, bluestacks mentioned that it might be an issue so as I do not use the tool I uninstalled the software altogether.
   
5. Updated Windows, this I do regularly and automatically so no big updates were missed.
   
6. Defragged the machine - system is optimized
   
7. Ran anti-virus check and all's good
   
8. Ran CCleaner
   

Now I might mention I'm not a super user, but I'm able to follow suggestions quite well.

Any help will be appreciated.
