    Re-started Windows Explorer: My screen went blank/dark blue

    1. My taskbar disappeared first. I opened task manager and found Windows Explorer at the bottom of the processes.

    2. I pressed re-start and normally, the screen goes back to normal. I didn't do the steps you list in 2.

    3. No. I just get the list.

    4. I restarted my computer and nothing changes. I turned it off and waited, then turned it back on. I get the sign on screen. Enter my password and then the dark blue screen appears.

    That 's it.
