    Windows starts up with a black screen and CMD prompt.


    Hello, yesterday I removed a miner off my PC and today this happened.


    The miner I removed was called SoundMixer utility, it infected CMD so everytime I tried starting it, it would mine. My cpu took a hit allowing me to notice it. I removed it from regedit as well.


    Today upon starting my PC I was greeted with the user selection screen. Once signed in no task bar, background, or desktop icons showed up. However my VPN and spotify started up in task manager.


    This is really confusing me, can anyone help? I can access another user account if I need to. But I rather not reset windows unless I have to.

    :)

    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.
