Hey, so, three days ago I was using my pc completely normal, but idk why my entire pc froze, I waited like 10 I restarted it, it boots completely normal, but when it gets to the desktop it just doesn’t load, the explorer got corrupted or sum because it doesn’t load, and I try to launch task manager to try and restart it from there but it doesn’t load too, sometimes I can’t even use security options cuz I get a strange error and have to reset my pc. I thought maybe I can reset from WinRE, but I have an HP aio with the main screen damaged, and windows tries to show WinRE on that screen, after like 10 reboots, the explorer somehow loads fine, but after a couple of minutes crashes again because it’s very unstable, I don’t know what else to try
#Explorer corrupted

Have you tried feature called Fix Problems using Windows update?
smells like some sort of hardware error to me, different apps are crashing in different ways, usually not a good sign.
But windows loads completely fine, it’s Explorer whats it’s failing
It gets to the stage of loading taskbar icons, it loads desktop icons, but when it loads taskbar icons it crashes
Explorer failing is more than often an iffy drive, can you upload your event logs?
(I just need the system logs)
I can’t even get the task manager to open, works like 1 in 20 reboots
Sometimes it doesn’t get past the login screen
Like this time
Then we're rather stuck until you can test new equipment or bring it to a repair shop, on a general basis it usually bottoms down to RAM corruption or a dead drive.
