My PC crashes Windows after I did dust cleaning. I removed the heatsink but I didnt know that I had to apply new thermal paste. So after I bought new paste Its the same problem. Windows refuses to load up and the PC just crashes. How do i fix this?

Boot to bios and see if there are health readings to get a clue as to how hot the cpu is getting. It only takes a few seconds to burn up a cpu without the proper cooling. At one time the chip was under the top but has now been moved to the top of the processor package. It has to be in very good contact at all times when powered..
Vacuums are the correct way to remove dust in most major companies. It is unsafe to blow the dust out. It will just end up back in the system, your eyes or lungs. The problem with a common vacuum is the static could build up. A simple cardboard extension would have protected it. You have to be careful that jumpers don’t get removed no matter how you remove dust. Normally a special vacuum is used.
If you must use canned air (which is freon and still a cfc) then do it outside and use face shield and mask.
A Pit Bull is like a gun you can pet. And there is no safety on it.
