    I don’t know, but now I want to find out what happened and what problems it could cause, since I turned it on via the power button with a white screen instead of the desktop

    Nope. It will just refresh and it will go back. May I know if the issue persists after restarting your computer?

    Hi Эрнст007,

    I'm Christine, I'll be happy to assist you. I can see here that the shortcut icons on your desktop are blinking. No worries, I'll do my best to help you.

    May I know when did the issue start? Is there any changes made before you got this issue?

    Please check and follow the steps below:

    1. Let's try to refresh the explorer.exe

    On Windows 11:

    Right click on start menu and choose Task Manager

    Click Details Tab and end the task of explorer.exe

    Then click Run New Task and type explorer.exe and hit enter

    Please check if the issue persists.

    1. Update or Rollback the Display driver

    Please press the Windows key + X

    Then click Device manager

    Kindly expand the Display Adapters

    Right click and choose "Update Driver"

    Select "Search automatically for drivers"

    If the issue persists Choose "Browse my computer for driver" instead

    and click " Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer"

    Choose the older version.

    Please restart and check if the issue persists.

    Please let me know the result. I'll be happy to assist you all the way until it's resolved.

    Thank you,

    Christine L
