I had this exact issue and had to perform a system restore, then create a new user.
Do Ctrl-Alt-Del and select Task Manager. (Click on "More details" at the bottom if it is there) Click on File - Run new task. Then type "control.exe" (no quotes) and tick "Create this task with administrative privileges." Then click OK. From there, you can search for Advanced System Settings, and open the System Restore dialog. Let me know if this works for you.

a_plastic_bag sorry for the delay man but i checked the subreddit and it all worked out fine. Thx for helping!
- Xvenom82Sep 03, 2021Brass ContributorThe following seems to be the best working method right now:
1. Open task manager with CTRL + Shift + ESC or CTRL + ALT + DEL -> Task manager
2. From task manager, go to File > Run New Task
3. In the new box, type, "Control" then press "Ok"
4. In the control panel, under "Programs", click "Uninstall a program".
5. Of the left sidebar, click "View installed updates", then choose any updates that start with "KB500" or "22000". Uninstall each one, then restart. (You might be forced to restart after uninstalling each update, in that case you might have to repeat steps 1-5 again to get into control panel and uninstall the next update)
You should at least have most operations available at this point. If control panel refuses to open during the above steps, follow the steps below, then retry the steps above.
To only get the taskbar back without rolling back updates:
1. Open task manager with CTRL + Shift + ESC or CTRL + ALT + DEL -> Task manager
2. From task manager, go to File > Run New Task
3. In the new box, type, "Control" then press "Ok"
4. In the control panel, navigate to "Clock and Region" > "Set the time and date" > "Change date and time..."
5. Use the calendar layout to select tomorrow's date, then press "Ok", then "Apply", then "Ok".
6. Press Win + L to return to the lock screen, then sign back into your account.
7. You should have your taskbar back at the bottom of the screen. If not, try restarting.
Now that you have the taskbar and explorer back, you can try different recovery methods unhindered (For the most part).
This is all brand new, and some of these steps might not work at all for you. Reply back if something doesn't work or if you find a better way! We are making incredible progress together y'all.- 8SecondsSep 03, 2021Copper Contributoryup i fixed already but ty for trying to help
