Hi,

Last week windows 10 performed an update. immediately I started getting random BSOD every so often each one with a completely different error. I tried to update windows again because it said there was an update available and needed to restart but it just restarts and doesn't install the update. I performed a virus scan using windows defender but found nothing. Things have started to get worse and worse. I started to not be able to open any folders (No error they just wouldn't open) then sometimes I would get an error saying the startmenu wasn't working and I needed to restart. Now as of today I still cant access anything. I cant open the registry or any programs or folders because I get an error saying the "the specified service does not exist as an installed service" When I try to restore to an earlier time I get a BSOD half way through and it doesn't work. When I try to re-install windows the same thing happens and I'm back to square one. Things will open fine in safe mode however I still get BSOD every 10 minutes or so each one with a completely different message. I have run various antivirus scans (Avast, Malwarebytes, Superantispyware, combofix, tdskiller, emisoft emmergency kit, services repair) in safe mode but find nothing.
