According to Microsoft’s post on an official support website, [link: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/release-health/status-windows-11-22h2#third-party-ui-customization-apps-might-cause-windows-to-not-start-up] Windows 11 devices may not start up anymore if certain UI customization apps are installed. … The company mentions the two programs StartAllBack and ExplorerPatcher specifically, but there is a chance that other user interface customization tools may also cause the issue. …”

Thank you, PKCano. I looked for a prior report, but evidently had a user error in the looking. I will attempt to delete my post or mark resolved as it adds little value to the conversation.

Thanks again.
