  1. Xbox App + Storage Service causes black screen and flashing taskbar on Windows boot


    I have the Xbox PC app installed on my PC and have several games installed on a second drive. Unfortunately, when I restart my computer Microsoft's Storage Service enters a boot loop and hangs my boot. The taskbar flashes constantly and the desktop doesn't successfully load for up to 15 minutes this is on an SSD, by the way. If I uninstall all of my games, the issue goes away. My only other option is to permanently disable Storage Service which I understand is not advisable.I am very frustrated. What is causing this? I've been digging around and see reports of this going back to 2020. How

    :)

    Black Screen after Log on


    So this is not a BSOD ? Have a Windows 10 disc or USB Flash Drive made ? How are you getting to task manager Ctrl.+Alt+Del ? Any cursor on screen ?

    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.
