> The only way to get the system working properly again is to restart the PC. A "soft" restart from Windows doesn't work, though; it just gets stuck at the "Restarting" screen forever. You need to do it by pressing the restart or power button.
Don't do this, you might lose data or mess stuff up. Just use task manager to kill explorer.exe before restarting. Or probably you can just kill explorer.exe and then go to File > Run new task, type "explorer" and press OK to start a new instance which should fix everything without restarting.
