I can only suggest to run a repair install again and see if it fixes anything now the malware is removed.

Then, I can't help anymore here - wait eventually for Neilpzz or other for furthe help...

If you decides to reinstall Windows, then, after that, get it updated with all the updates, it will install - you probably will run into the wellknown KB5034441-troubles... Just ignore it... Install all updates, also the optional ones, BEFORE installing programs.

IMPORTANT!!

Save your documents, photos and other personal files onto external harddisk / USB-sticks first!!

And EXTRA-important!!! Don't fiddle around with any cracked things after this - there's always a risk of getting a bucket of BEEEP!
