Windows 10: November 2020 Windows 10 Update Black Screen and Flashing Taskbar.

I recently tried to update my PC to the newest update, but when I restarted my PC and loggined in, all I could see is Black Screen in the background and the taskbar flashing. I left it for 30 minutes before I decided that it must have been the update.


I learned how to unistall the update by holding shift and clicking restart, then troubleshooting which leads you to an option to uninstall the latest updates. After doing so, my PC was back to normal.


I would like to update my PC for security reasons but not if it makes my PC unusable.


Does anyone have a solution?
