Windows 10: Apps and task manager won't open, windows 11.

Hello, when I start or restart my pc, lately it has been starting up just fine, but just after startup and I sign in. All the apps don't open. I also can not access settings or task manager, and that includes being able to restart or turn the pc off through the start menu.
