      @@Stulker1369 Reset your computer. Anything you want to keep should first be downloaded to a USB ~ as a safeguard. Then download DuckDuckGo for your search engine and Firefox for your browser. Add Privacy Badger. These work well for me, judging from the amount of bitching I get from some websites trying to get in. There are some other additions you could try, but see how you go with those. They're free to download and install. All the best.

    If your system files are corrupted, then the cloud reset would be better. But since you have no way of knowing that your system files are corrupted, you should always use the cloud reset.

      Boot into BIOS. Check if your OS is fried or not. If it is (fried means system files have been compromised or broken) search up how to install windows 10 from a separate device. (ex: booting into windows xp or vista on a old laptop and doing a new installation of windows 10.)
      But I don't know, if that doesn't work punch it a couple times and pray that you didn't break something.

    My concern was for some reason i cant manually delete those very big compressed files on my drive d..
    I wanna start everything fresh. Like its new. And im okay with that. I wanna delete those unnecessary files esp in drive d..
    I proceeded to delete everything. Clean slate...
    Just one reminder. On my end, it mentioned about TPS or TPM i think. Just dont change it press ESC as it shows on the screen.
    U will do some microsoft setup once it restarted. Like your microsoft account password setup., etc.,
    Then...
    Wallaaa...
    Once inside windows i checked my storage. All is clean slate. That felt good. Bec for years those big files on my drive d, i dont even know what they are🤣...
    So yeah, what a relief.

    Thank you!! I didn't want to have to do this after only having my laptop for one year and having tonnes of apps mostly VSTs and music stuff. I tried my best to keep my laptop safe as best as I could. Didn't download anything suspicious and ran virus/malware scans and repairs very regularly. When I run the repair (ReImage) it says there is no problems with the stability or anything else and the virus scanner (Spyhunter) shows no viruses/malware. I'm not sure what the problem is. I deleted some apps as I thought the RAM might be under pressure. Didn't help in any way. Windows/laptop keeps crashing every time I open an app (or basically do any little thing such as move a file or go on the web) and then gets stuck on black screen of death. Its unbearable at this stage. This is the last resort now, wish it hadn't come to this but it has. However I will accept it if the laptop works properly after the reset. However if after the reset if the system is still constantly crashing every 10 minutes after login then its curtains :/
