So, are you back to Win 8.1, or now using Win 10?  Hopefully Win 10.

WHEW!!!!

Turns out all I needed to do was try a restart to pretty much fix
everything.  This started out badly when the Shut Down and Restart option
led to a complete shutdown with no restart that would not respond to
pressing the On switch, but pulling and reinserting the plug and pressing
the On button fixed things.

Man!!!
