Getting the error: C:/Windows/system32/config/systemprofile/Desktop is unavailable. Resulting in a black screen and unable to open anything but task manager. Also windows will not restore to a previous version which makes me think the update corrupted files somewhere. Tried manually creating a folder through command prompt for the desktop (folder already exists) still not able to fix this nonsense. Will I need to do a clean install of w10? Maybe sfc scanning will work? Edited April 25, 2019 by Pingfuzzboi Awards

But what causes my problem is my game keypad that I keep next to my keyboard. If that sucker is plugged in when I start up I either get the same error as you or a blue screen, But if UNPLUGGED when i start up no problem at all. So my suggestion would be unplug everything and start up then see what happens. It might not solve your problem but its worth a try before wiping your hard drive and starting again.

Device manager/display adapters/right click on device/properties and go to events --- there you will see recorded any changes made Do that on all devices if you wish Pingfuzzboi and baldie 2 Awards

This will give you your desktop back. I realize a Windows "reset" probably fixed the problem, but if it comes back... My work laptop gives me a black screen on every boot, so I'm no stranger to this procedure at all. There are no other side effects, and I have no clue what's causing it in the first place. loaderXI and Pingfuzzboi 2 Awards
