Windows black screen boot with cmd

[Ash.J]

Hey everyone,

 

I am facing this issue where when I boot my system and after filling the password I am welcomed by a black screen with command prompt on it(System 32).

someone told me to type in "explorer.exe" to retrieve the desktop back; and it sure did.But that was a temporary fix,now every time i boot my system i am greeted by this black screen and every time i have to type in the command to get the desktop.

 

I have tried sfc/scannow command on cmd but did not help....there were no error.

I was planning to restore my system to a safe point...but since i did not enable that feature i could not do so.

I did not want to reinstall windows as it said i can keep the personal files but the apps that i installed would be deleted.

I got lots of apps and games and i dont want to waste time reinstalling them,although they were installed on separate HDDs whereas the OS(WINDOWS 10) is on my SSD.

 

Anyone who faced the same problem?

can anyone fix it?

Please do help me out.

My friend had the same problem. You need to use System Restore.

 

Another option is to run MSOOBE and hit SHIFT+F3 while it's running to enter Audit Mode, but that's advanced shit.

No you don't  You don't lose any data or apps.  However if you have apps installed in between then just pick a latest date one below what you have now.  All apps will work fine.  Just go back to before the black screen and what not.

because that's how Windows Shadow Copy works.

as i mentioned before , i cannot select a point for restore as i did not enable that feature,therefore there are no recovery point to which i can restore back to.

 

my only other option is for reinstalling windows...but the apps are the issue.

I don't think so. They might be uninstalled because system restore modifies your registry.

Seriously, get over it. It's either do system restore and reinstall 2-3 things or reinstall Windows 10 and everything else.

My first question would be if you checked your boot/startup settings in msconfig. Make sure it's not set to boot to safe mode with CMD. But that might be a noticeable thing, due background looking weird. When it first loads up, does it have a background with a CMD prompt? or is it a complete black screen kind of cmd?  I'm still leaning on the msconfig.

You should be able to refresh the pc with out uninstalling software if I remember. If not it does give you a lit of all the isntall software. You can also run belacr before the reisntall to get a list of software along with all the cd keys.
