Does the computer load up and operate normally in safe mode? https://www.howtogeek.com/107511/how...-the-easy-way/

If you can then perform a clean boot on the computer.

Oh i saw that it was due to a program that was being detected by Microsoft defender. I couldn’t get it out of the registry so i reset my computer. The one that keeps your files. It was my last resort since nothing was working.
