I tried turning on my computer on and my full screen is purple. I could sign in successfully, but my whole screen is purple. I could see my cursor and I could only open task manager. I tried to open other applications but nothing happened. Immediate help would be appreciated.

I'm Paul and I'm here to help you with your concern.
I will suggest that you try to boot in Safe Mode.
>> In the Windows sign-in screen, press and hold the Shift key while you select Power > Restart.
>> After your PC restarts to the Choose an option screen, select Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings > Restart.
>> After your PC restarts, you'll see a list of options. Select 4 or F4 to start your PC in safe mode.
Then if you don't have the same issue in Safe Mode, I will recommend that you try to uninstall the Display Driver.
Open Device Manager > click Display Adapters > right-click Display Driver > click Uninstall device.
After that, restart the PC normally.
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks.

So I just restarted my computer and my screen was fixed. But before I restarted my computer, I couldn’t do anything. As in, I couldn’t press the windows key and power off like that, I had to power restart, I couldn’t open any applications or windows and I could only see my cursor. But I do appreciate the help.
