Windows 10: Everything has “stopped” working

I originally restarted my computer and then it was on the restarting screen for at least an hour, which frustrated me. So, i did a hard shutdown by holding down the power button for 5 seconds and my computer shut off. When I turned it back on, nothing seemed to be working: can’t adjust brightness, can’t adjust sound, there’s no wifi to connect to, etc. this all worked perfectly before the shutdown so I don’t know what happened. I tried looking all over the web but I couldn’t find a solution. Can this be fixed? I’m using a windows 10 laptop

The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.
