Hello,

If it's just the explorer process that you’re missing, you just need to restart it.
To do this, it's quite simple: press the famous ctrl+alt+delete which allows you to open the task manager. Once it's open, go to File (if you don’t see it, the shortcut is alt+F) then click on New Task (Run).
In the window that opens, all you have to do is type explorer (or explorer.exe) and then click OK.

Note: this won't work if you have actually deleted the explorer.exe file itself, which is located here: C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe

I didn't delete the file, I just ended the process. Unfortunately, I wasn't aware of this restart procedure, but I can't do it anymore because I turned off the PC, and when I turn it back on, it doesn't start (black screen).

Even by pressing ctrl+alt+delete on the black screen, can't you launch the task manager?
Otherwise, make sure that no external devices (USB stick or external hard drive) are connected to your computer when you turn it on.
