Windows freezes when I first open or click on anything after startup

I have a laptop with Windows 11 on it. Haven't had any issues for a while, but in the last couple of months it will freeze sometimes. I boot up the laptop and log in to Windows. When I go to open an app or click anything really, the screen will sometimes freeze or go black. I have the spinning circle cursor sometimes but I am unable to do anything. I let it sit for a while and nothing changed. I reboot and sometimes have to go through a few reboots before it no longer freezes. 

I double-checked and Windows is up to date. I didn't install anything new shortly before the issue started happening. I tried doing a repair and got a message that it ran into a problem and couldn't be repaired. 

Anyone else have this issue and/or suggestions on what I should check?
