Windows 10: The background desktop is black and wont load and icons or files on it.

I had my laptop in sleep mode and I was preparing to get back on it and when I did it had died. I powered it back on again and I logged in normally but when I got on I could move my mouse and look at the task bar, however the desktop was completely black. There were no other issues with anything and even in the desktop folder it shows all the previous files. What could be the causes and solutions to this problem?

Desktop background goes black

I have a picture here of my desktop background. Notice how behind the icons is black. Now the entire background just blacked out. I also have problems with menus in apps. Notice how Synctoy isn't displaying the menu correctly. What is going on?

 

Remove Linux Desktop Icons

I am not sure whether this will work (Ubuntu does not have icons like that on the desktop by default), but I suggest opening the trash bin and sweeping the icons into the window showing the trash bin.
