Hello,

I have this problem for a long time now. Randomly when I turn off the PC and then turn on, right after i log in, and see it takesa long time, i know its coming, and then ..... Bam... only black screen, no icons, nothing, windows flickers ever second, every window looses focus. only thing i manage to open is task manager but i cant do anything in it. So i went into Eventviewer after this happened. and i noticed finally the error. (see picture)

Open Start, type: file explorer options

Under the General tab, click in the Open File Explorer to then choose "This PC".

Try WinKey + E now. If it opens fine, then the problem is with Quick access cache, which can be cleared by deleting *.automaticDestinations-ms from the following directory, using Command Prompt.
