Whenever I turn on my computer, after the windows log in it loads my taskbar but not my desktop and freezes. I can still move my mouse though. i’ve waited for half an hour but it doesnt load. In safe mode I ran Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (full scan), avast free ativirus (full scan) , Microsoft online scanner and emisoft emergency kit. nothing was found. I tried to run a boot time scan but it seems you cannot in safe mode. (all definitions are up to date but Avasts as it wont let me update them in safe mode)
I can see no apparent malware here, so disabling those two items allowed you to progress further this time
Next we will check for driver conflicts
Step 1: Start MSConfig
Click Start, type msconfig in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or provide confirmation.
Step 2: Configure Selective Startup options
1.In the System Configuration Utility dialog box, click Selective Startup on the General tab.
From MSConfig services
Turn on half of the services that are turned off
Reboot
If it works OK then turn on half of the remaining services
And continue in this vein
The intention here is to pinpoint the service that is causing the problem
I did all that to turn on the services but is it normal that now I have all of them on and the problem is not happening anymore? All my services are on but my computer turns on fine
