Black Screen with Creators Update Installed and a Reboot
Installed the Windows 10 Creators update for the 3rd time to completion each time. After the install, everything was running as expected.
I was looking at a digital magazine within Zinio, and after completing several issues the program lockup and I needed to reboot. Zinio is not part of my startup programs.
During the startup the Black Screen appeared to go nowhere and I heard the familiar Win 10 startup sound but the screen was Black with the cursor spinning yet going nowhere and not stopping.
Finally opened into Safe Mode but could not find any issues. Used my Win10 startup disk to find the trouble but the repair mode didn’t find any issues.
I am now without a functional desktop computer again. Each time prior, I installed a backup but continue to be in this circle of events. My laptop has all of the most recent programs that were also installed in the desktop installed.
I have a backup of the hard drive with the Creators update, ver. 1703 and a few days older backup without it which has been used to get me operating the desktop again for the last two times.
I found on the web a fix for the Black Screen by starting in Safe Mode, but none of the five suggested solutions worked.
My current desktop is a year old and Win 10 Pro 64 bit came with it installed.
I need your help, please.
