Hi.

I'm only guessing that the update process deleted some files and failed to 
replace them with new versions. Some information about that could be hidden in 
/var/log/pacman.log.

Are you able to run bash or pacman from cmd?

You can look into your /var/cache/pacman/pkg and extract latest bash and 
msys2-runtime packages manually.

Hopefully some of this helps.
