    explorer.exe will not run other than in safe mode


    Deleting Avanquest Powerdesk (which I had been looking at quite some time back and had forgotten that I even had on the computer) solved the problem and gave me a working Windows 10 desktop so it definitely was that causing the problem.

    Thanks for suggesting I look at the event viewer and pointing out that the DLL was not a part of windows.
