Windows 10: Cursor lagging - then goes black screen - then a empty white widget appears which looks...

As I described. Cursor lags and loads, then the screen goes black and after that a white empty widget appears from the setup at the beginning of a new windows instalation. After that everything goes back to normal.

Windows goes to Black Screen, no cursor

Many thanks for this!

I'd exhausted every solution posted here, and when I read your post, I was initially skeptical that your suggestion would have worked... but knowing that the desktop would appear when I put the laptop into Sleep / Hibernation and then brought it out again, I figured I'd have nothing to lose to try your suggestion...

Anyway, for those trying everything, try this simple (possible) fix above from Beastmode. Worked for me, and has removed the problem. Stable for a number of days too. I can't believe it's just a co-incidence because I must have done tens of reboots trying things, and the desktop came up perfectly immediately having done the above.

I'll certainly try this if (when!) it goes black again. ;-)

(Signed up just to post that this worked for me)

Black screen with cursor after Windows 10 update

Let's replicate the issue.

You power on the PC >> Get the login screen >> You sign-in with password or PIN >> You then get the black screen with white cursor.

This has nothing to do with display drivers or issue with graphics itself. The Microsoft App service is causing this issue.

While we are at the black screen with white cursor, go ahead and press the keys - Ctrl+Alt+Del

>You will get a menu on screen where you have to select - Task Manager.

>Go to 'Services' tab on the Task Manager.

>Look for 'AppReadiness' service.

>Right click and stop it.

Performing above steps will remove the black screen and show your desktop. This means, the desktop was ready at the back-end. It was Microsoft service that was causing the black screen in the front.

Once you get your desktop back, follow the below steps to stop the 'AppReadiness' completely.

>Click on Start and type 'Services'

>Look for 'AppReadiness' under the list.

>Right click and select 'Properties'

>Startup type should be set to 'Disabled'

>Set the 'Service Status' to Stopped.

Stopping this service will not affect your data.

try oledi, no luck....the "AppReadiness" status is oledi "STOP".....
