    I can't do ANYTHING


    I logged on my laptop this morning and when I'm logged in I try to open up google chrome or spotify, but nothing works!

    I looked deeper into this and I tried fixing it but it didn't work. It's been around 2-3 days that I've been having this issue and I'd lile for someone to solve it.

    Like I said I've tried fixing it multiple times but nothing happens I can't even go in settings! I can open Task Manager and I tried rebooting it multiple times!

    Also, once when I logged in I tried opening up discord "something like skype, look ut up" and suddenly a notification pops up saying "You need to fix your Microsoft account to keep using this pc or whatever" so that sorta guided me a bit on finding some articles about this happening to other people but nothing worked! I need help A.S.A.P

    :)

    I can't do anything..

    Please help me.

    It's really just a few things which I don't know about internet and about computerS. So I tried everything..

    So.. I have that folder with old windows which using almost all of my memory in laptop (windows 10). And I tried to rid of that in all possible ways, but didn't work. Last option was through cmd, i went like admin, of course (RD /S /Q %SystemDrive%\windows.old)
    but it didn't work too. And then I noticed that my 'run as administrator' don't work at all. I changed old windows access properties, but nothing. Thank you I can't do ANYTHING :)

    Hi Vee, try this method to remove Windows.old

    Open File Explorer

    Click on your hard drive

    On the Manage Tab, click Cleanup

    Let Disk Cleanup do its initial scan

    Select Everything in the list and choose Delete

    Start Disk Cleanup again

    Let Disk Cleanup do its initial scan

    This time in the resulting dialog, click 'Cleanup System Files'

    Let Disk Cleanup run another scan

    Select Everything in the list and choose Delete
