Hi. I'm David, and I'm happy to help you.

If you are still stuck on the blue screen, press and hold the PC's power button until it turns off. Wait a few seconds, and turn it on again.

After turning on the PC, see if your computer created a minidump file.

This file is in "C:\Windows\Minidump".

Copy any files you have to your desktop and store them in a ZIP file. Then upload the ZIP file to the cloud (OneDrive), choose to share it, and get the link.

Post the link to the ZIP file here so I can have a look.

I await your reply. Click on the "Reply" button below my reply.

oh sorry i forgot to say that the only solution I needed was that it was stuck on the blue screen for a good one hour and needed to force shut down, I was planning on looking for the problems myself and only needed alternatives to forcing it to shut down. I don't know why it didn't work the first time i tried holding it, but it worked the 3rd time. But thanks anyways though!
