  1. Desktop frozen


    When I Start Or Restart My Pc The Desktop Is Frozen, Cant Right Click Or Use The Taskbar But I can Move The Mouse Pointer Around The Screen. I Have Left The Pc For 5 minutes And An Hour In Case Something Was Working In The Background But Nothing.

    Only When I Press Ctrl Alt Delete And Start Task Manager The Desktop Suddenly Unfreezes. There Is No Undue Usage In Task Manager.

    Nothing New In Start Up Programs, Only Kaspersky Total Security 2020, Everything But System Startups Are Disabled.

    I Have Ran A Full Scan, Full Trojan Scan, Rootkit Scan, Malwarebyte Scan, Nothing Found.

    I Have Ran sfc/scannow Which Found Some Corrupted Files And Repaired Them, I Also RanDISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth Which Completed Without Problems.

    Its Not A Big Problem As I Only Have To Start Task Manager To Stop it, But Its really Annoying. HELP


    Ps I Have Googled It And Somebody Said On Reddit It Could Be Related To The Mouse ????

    :)

  2. Frozen before desktop


    My 2 year old computer did a windows 10 update overnight and I woke up to a frozen computer. It is stuck right before the desktop. I cannot do anything. I've pressed the normal buttons one would press and Nada.
    Rebooted by way of the power button. Boots to the same screen before the desktop and freezes. I cannot get into startmenu to get to safe mode.
    Any suggestions? F8 and F11 are not working.

    Frozen desktop

    We have a Dell Alienware desktop that is frozen and unresponsive. We tried all the simple solutions from the internet up to resetting to a save point a week earlier which worked for about 5 minutes. Are there any suggestions before we get to reinstalling
    Windows? Thank you
