    Windows Booting But Start Up Screen Won't Go Away


    I got a weird one.

    My Windows 10 Pro has been running great, but all the sudden today I get a problem.

    I turned on my PC, get the blue start up screen with the spinning dot. I hear the start up music, but no desktop. There is activity of the drive being read, machine is not dead or froze. If I click anywhere on the blue screen, it flickers and stays. I go ahead and type my password in and the screen flickers again, but no desktop. But I hear the usual beep of my apps that load at login, the drive light is flickering, but no desktop. All I see is the blue window with the spinning dots. The PC seems to be logged in and running, but I can't see the desktop.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks.

    :)

    how do I rid myself of the annoying Windows 10 splash screen on boot up. The no gui boot is not working

    No no. not a flickering screen. I want the boot up splash screen to go away I do not wish to look at the windows logo. I wish to watch the processes as my computer boots up, but I cannot get rid of the annoying boot up process windows screen.

    pop up error screen that won't go away

    Hi Stacy. I'm Greg, a volunteer installation specialist and 8 year Windows MVP, here to help you.

    Here's how to completely remove Amazon Assistant bloatware:

    1) Go to Settings > Apps and Feature

    Find Amazon Assistant, click it, and select Uninstall.

    2) Type CMD in Start search, right click Command Prompt to run at Administrator.

    Type sc delete Amazon Assistant Service and press Enter.

    3) If Amazon Assistant has injected a plug-in into your web browser, disable it and reset your web browser's settings

    Finally, reboot the system.

    I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and let us know how it goes. I will keep working with you until it's resolved.

    Windows Booting But Start Up Screen Won't Go Away

    Problem seems to be related to today's (9 May) update because I now have the same problem on my laptop after it updated.

    Got the laptop back up using system restore via recovery disk. The PC is still borked, system restore keeps failing no matter what date I chose.

    Your only choice will to be blow away the install and reinstall windows. Make a copy of your drive image after you get everything on it and then defer the Major and Minor Windows updates so that it does not happen again.

    The OP already stated that their machine is beyond rolling back to another restore point. Doing so will just make matters worse.
