Windows 10: Black screen with cursor after quality updates

Since the end of last year I have trouble with the latest Windows 11 Quality Updates. Everytime when it is installed I get a black screen after logging in. I see the cursor and can start the task manager but that is pretty much it. I cannot start the file explorer or anything. The only thing I can do is to uninstall the updates and to set my computer back to an earlier date. I also cannot avoid the updates to happen.I read somewhere that that issue may be due to a graphic driver problem. But I do have the latest driver. I have a Nvidia Geforce GTX 1650.

I have tried following the steps of booting into safe mode, going into the control panel and uninstalling the latest windows update that caused the 'Windows black screen with cursor' error. However, now it wont even boot to the desktop, it will show 'Automatic repairs being done' and then automatically booting to safe mode. Upon checking my BIOS, the SSD drive with windows installed with it, is not even showing up in the boot list/priority. (still able to see drive in bios under System status and when checking under windows installation time.)
