Or something similar.


The only way I've seen, found or encountered to resolve the problem is to do a clean install.

I'd probably start by doing a clean install of windows 10 unless you have an outstanding reason to avoid doing so. We've seen an extraordinary number of crazy issues with systems that have been upgraded, that are resolved by doing a clean install. There are a few issues not resolved by a clean install, but the numbers are very few.

Prior to installing as outlined by another of our members:


1) Check that the software and hardware you mostly use are comptible with Windows 10 and have drivers available


2) Make sure to update all necessary drivers and Windows updates
(Does not apply when doing a clean install)


3) Some devices might need a specific driver to operate with Windows 10, it might be a good idea to download these Windows 10 compatible versions prior to upgrading and save them to a flash drive or DVD disk in order to have them ready, just in case.


4) Backup all and any important files from your computer to a cloud service or external harddrive


5) Create recovery media for your current Windows install, if you have a OEM pc/laptop refer to the user manual or check the website of the manufacturer for how to create the recovery media for your device (some people have been unable to use the rollback feature after upgrading to Windows 10)
