    Windows 10 black screen


    I can boot up normally, but as soon as my home screen appears and I open a program, if I minimize it, my back ground is all black and does not show my desktop apps. I have uninstalled any video drivers and that did not help on reboot? I still get the same scenario. I did a restore point to a week ago and got the same results. Any help would be appreciated. I can get to task manager to run commands. I do NOT want to completely reinstall my windows app if it can be avoided, please help.

    :)

    Black screen after 'Starting Windows' sequence

    Sounds like the old... windows black screen of death.

    Try this quoted from "VisiHow" article "Repair Windows 7 Black Screen of Death":

    They, also, have some other options there, too.
    Google search and you will find a lot of the "Windows Black Screen of Death with cursor" fixes.
