I was having trouble with windows explorer crashing so I decided to run windows diagnostic startup mode from msconfig. Once my pc restarted I was not able to log onto my account. All I got was a screensaver with the time and my only option were the normal power options (restart, shutdown). Iβm running windows 10.
I would first like you to try a System Restore from the recovery console. Choose a point well before the issue. You can get there by following the instructions below. If you are unable to complete a system restore then go ahead and get me the logs from FRST so that I can see what is going on with your machine.
[ul]
[li]On a clean machine, please download FRST 64bit or FRST 32 bit and save it to a flash drive. Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system. Plug the flashdrive into the infected PC.[/li][li]If you are using Windows 8 consult How to use the Windows 8 System Recovery Environment Command Prompt to enter System Recovery Command prompt.

Note: In case you can not enter System Recovery Options by using F8 method, you can use Windows installation disc, or make a repair disc. Any Windows installation disc or a repair disc made on another computer can be used.
