GerAlt-Right. Ciriously.
Since it will inevitably get suggested, I will mention that yes I have tried NUMEROUS times of doing a clean driver install using DDU. I unplugged the LAN and everything. That doesn't fix the issues. Booting into safe mode doesn't really change anything either. Although I have never had an issue
I have two issues that may or may not be related:
The first issue:
It almost without fail occurs whenever my system requires a restart due to a driver or something being updated. The short version of my issue is that my computer will not allow me to cleanly Restart it. Whenever, I use the Restart function on my computer, I can get to the login screen just fine and type in my pin, but the desktop doesn't load, but it shows a blacks background with a flashing taskbar, no loading icons, and the start button doesn't work and I cannot get information on how to fix it. I can get to the Task Manager with Crtl+Alt+Del. If I try to shutdown or restart, the system just stays in an endless "Windows is shutting down" loop and I am forced to use the power button (my case has no reset button) Whenever I press and hold the power button it will reboot and windows will USUALLY load just fine. Sometimes it will take multiple reboots. But once the desktop properly loads I can game just fine without issues. No gaming related crashes. While the this issue isn't completely breaking it is VERY annoying and would like to be able to boot and restart my computer without issues. It is almost always guaranteed to occur whenever I update a driver or a piece of software or use the generic restart function. I have disabled things like Fast Boot.
The second issue, which may or may not be related to the first is similar:
Where the desktop will load, but the Start Bar is inaccessible, The dead giveaway to when this happens is when the OneDrive icon on the bottom right has a slash through it. When that happens I can't run MS based apps, I have the same shutdown/restart issues present in my first issue. I did research and it seemed like Eset and the Xbox app for PC Gamepass were not playing nice. So I prevented Eset from doing a startup scan and I also disabled the Xbox app from loading on startup and I don't believe I have seen that specific issue since, but the first issue 100% remains.
I am so fed up with this issue and would like some suggestions.
My drivers are up-to-date
Specs:
AMD Ryzen 3900X
Asrock Taichi X570
32GB RAM
EVGA Geforce 2080 Ti
Corsair 500 GB M2 PCI-E 4.0 SSD
2TB Sabrent M2_SSD
