So I'm not exactly sure if this is the appropriate area for this thread, but I do have some questions about windows 10 and if anyone had similar problems.

Recently my laptop would not get past the lock screen and would always become unresponsive. When i do manage to get past the 10+ minute wait to log in, it takes a while to load up again (usually failing and returning to the lock screen).
When i do somehow miraculously log into my desktop, nothing loads and everything is unresponsive and then a window pops up saying "Windows is being unresponsive, would you like to end the process?" that sort of thing
I generally didn't end the process but it terminates itself in the end leaving me a blank black screen with my pointer.

I don't know what happened. Everything was fine until then and I don't know.
I had to do a system reboot crying and lost many of the applications I installed (RIP my undertale Genocide route save file)

and as a safety precaution from now on i installed linux on my laptop.

So. Any ideas what the heck happened or anyone had the same problem?

There are too many factors you did not include that make it difficult to pinpoint the issue, so I will go ahead and ask questions I need in order to get a better understanding:

Did this happen immediately after upgrading to Windows 10, or had it been some time after?

If so, how long after?

Was your OS a legitimate copy of Windows, or did you install a cracked version?

What sort of anti-virus and anti-malware programs do you have installed?

How old is the PC?

Have you dropped it or knocked it hard into anything?
