    Black Screen: Win7 Pro - Lost access to task manager and explorer.exe


    My computer stopped working a few days ago. Every time I start my computer, it showed the black background with no taskbar or icons but has mouse cursor. I search in google and all i saw is the step Ctrl+Alt+Delete so I did it and click the task manager then it gave me an error saying "The application was unable to start(0xc0000022). Click OK to close the application." And I also did the F8 steps but it is still the same, nothing happen. I can't run task manager to start explorer.exe. What should I do? Please somebody help me.

    Welcome to our forum Raf15.

    This is the first thing I would do if it was my computer.

    By Brink:
    SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

    If you still need help.
    Read through these two tutorials by Brink. To me this would be the next easy way if you can do it on your system.

    System Restore
