    Windows 10 restarts @ lock screen. No issues prior/came out of nowhere


    When I power up my PC, Windows goes into the loading and then lock screen like it always has. Right when I try to type in my password, the lockscreen slowly fades away and reboots.

    I thought I fixed it with a system restore, but now, whenever I turn off my computer, even if I successfully get into Windows after 'fixing it' with restore, it starts all over again. Basically I can't turn off my computer.

    What the heck is going on?
