so when i boot and log in as a user i only get a black screen with a cmd window that says stsem32, i managed to type in explorer.exe to boot but now when i reset i have to do that everytime.

does that happen in safe mode?
on logon screen, open the power menu in bottom right
while holding left shift, click restart button
this restarts windows in a blue menu
choose troubleshoot
choose advanced
choose start up options
click the restart button
choose a safe mode (it doesn't matter which) by using number associated with it.
Pc will restart and load safe mode

is it the same or normal? from one fix I found, its likely it won't help

You may need to reset windows to fix it.
