Hello so normally i can fix my problems because i am pretty geeky, but this problem seems to have me stuck. I do not know what to call it or how to explain it at all, my windows boots up and then when I sign in i got no desktop only the windows start bar and all of the apps on my screen and the action arrow on the bottom right next to my clock is not there anymore. heres some screenshots i took using gyazo

I also cant open up a window and move it around where ever i want to like normal? its hard to explain but you can see it in the second screenshot, i can only either go into full screen or if i wanted to move it i can only do it like how the second screenshot shows. i have no idea what to do and i just want to get back to doing business someone please help me find the solution. i got ts, discord, skype anything to get this problem fixed already :))

You must have accidentally turned on tablet mode or it adjusted to your hardware.

Settings Gear>System>Tablet Mode>

When I sign in:
change to "Use Desktop Mode"

When the device automatically switches tablet mode on or off:
Change to "Don't ask me and don't switch"

It will go right back to the way it was after you adjust it.
