Windows 10 update downgraded laptop into a fancy piece of foldable plastic.

Ok, my computer is starting to drive me nuts with the automatic updates crippling my laptop right after installing them. But, today nothing will work to repair it. Tried using the command line path, but my boot file is locked...? Why, how, and when did that get locked? Anyways, specs: Samsung, 1TB SSD, Windows 10, and a dual core processor. If you need further specs, let me know.

I’m starting to wonder if I somehow filled a terabyte of memory, or if this is ransomware without the ransom demand, or just the time of this computer’s passing.

Please help.

Update: trying to use the regback method revealed that the dir of regback showed nothing but zeros for the individual files’ sizes. Seriously at my wits end here.
