Windows 10: My screen is blank but my mouse is showing on laptop how do I select my apps

My screen is black and I can’t select anything. All I see is my mouse

Laptop with broken screen How much?

I would like suggestions and look in local stores. I dont wanna buy a laptop from someone online. Sorry. But could be a good idea if you asked him about the performance on older games. Gonna make a list ofall laptops people suggest me.

Remove the screen for space purpose here its small desk and if the screen is opened it will hide my 22 inches lcd

 

Blank screen with mouse cursor after login

I have not tried another monitor since the login screen has a full screen showing the background picture. My thought is if it shows as normal that the graphics are fine. If I am wrong please let me know.

No, there is no taskbar. Only a black screen with the mouse cusor. I can enter task manager and troubleshooting.

I ran Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth and get error: 50 Dism does not support servicing Windows PE with the /Online option.

Tried sfc /scannow and got: Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation

Is it time to remove HDD and get data off and do a clean install? Or a repair install? I think I can get data off by connecting hard drive to a desktop. Everything else (Apps) I can reload.

Not sure what next step would be.*Confused

 

Blank Screen

Hi Virginia,

Conflicts with third-party software and outdated graphic drivers are common contributors to the black screen issue that you're having. To isolate the said issue, we'd like to ask a few questions:

• Are you getting any error messages before getting a blank screen?
• Are you experiencing this when using a particular app?
• Were there any changes made on your computer settings prior to this issue?

Meanwhile, we suggest that you refer to this

We'll wait for your response and assist you accordingly.
