    Win 10 dead as a door nail!


    Guys,
    About an hour ago, in the middle of things my PC (win 10 pro 64-bit, HP Elite 8000) totally froze and I had to turn it off.
    After re-booting, no icon on the desktop works anymore, not a single one. I have rebooted several times, hitting F9, F10, etc but always the same result. Ctrl, Alt, Delete opens that screen with the various choices but that is the end of it. Task Manager does not open either.
    Can someone help, please?
    Thanks,
    Ed

    Fixed!
    My Logitech M510 wireless mouse broke the left button switch, never mind.

    Hi.
    See if you can boot into advanced startup options, then choose a restore point.
    Advanced Startup Options - Boot to in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums
    System Restore Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums

    That is, of course, assuming system restore is turned on and you have some restore points set.
