Ran repairs now PC won't reboot at all

<< < (3/5) > >>

That would normally point to something you have installed and is in the Startup menu or an infection.

Let's try the clean boot first.

Right click on the taskbar and select Task Manager - if the page is blank then click on More details in the lower left.

Under The Startup tab click on each item and select Disable

Click on File/Exit then reboot to see if there's any difference.

If you are unable to use the Start button to shutdown or restart then while on the desktop press CTRL+ALT+DEL and click on the power symbol and select Shutdown.

I only have the Realtek HD Audio Manager enabled in my Win 10.

If still no difference and you can't use the Start button then right click on the taskbar, select Task Manager/File/Run new task then type msconfig.exe and check the box to create this task with admin privileges then press enter.

When msconfig opens click on Services then check the box to Hide all Microsoft services then hit Disable all - Apply - OK - Restart

It's essential that you check the box to Hide all MS services before you hit Disable all etc.

Tried those steps but no joy.  Problems started after the Windows 10 update last year. One thing I haven't yet tried is creating a new user profile

You could do but I'd be opting for a repair install.

With the current Win 10 ISO minus any recent updates, that would take you to 1607 14393.0 which is what the version was after the August update.

Subsequent updates bring you back up to 14393.693

If it was the August update that caused your problem, it may have been a bad install, but starting off with that version may resolve the Start button and Notification problems.

You can create Win 10 bootable media by using the Download tool now button, but read the section on creating installation media.

When I perform a repair install, I opt for it not to look for any updates and then do a manual check for updates after.

I also fully disable my Norton Security prior to it as well.

hmmm did you do a graphic driver update at all recently? and do you have more than one graphics card example: one that is built in and one that is in a pci express slot? I'm curious because if you are getting the dell logo than it goes black what i'm wondering is if it's trying to detect a default monitor on another port if you have multiple graphics cards. 

Sunnyday2100:
No driver updates recently and as far as I know there's only one graphics card. I mostly use the PC for general domestic stuff so haven't added or changed anything for ages.  I first noticed the problem with Start an Action center in October after the Anniversary update.  As I said it works in Safe Mode.  Been trying to find a solution for ages
