Please confirm if you were able to boot into Safe Mode.


If you can boot into Safe Mode, but disabling Login Items does not work for a normal boot, then run EtreCheck while in Safe Mode and post the report here using the "Additional Text" icon which looks like a piece of paper. You can also try creating a new admin user account while in Safe Mode, then try to boot normally by using the new user account. The results can provide us with more clues.
