Attempting Repairs 0 How Long Should It Run?
Trying to help a family friend out. They restarted their W10 computer on their own (no reason other than to do it ) and upon restarting the computer boots to "Diagnosing your PC" for a few moments. It then loads a screen that says Restart or Advanced Options. Clicking Restart keeps bringing me back to the Restart/Advanced Options page. So we clicked Advanced Options and then tried startup repairs. It has now been saying "Attempting Repairs" for literally hours. They do not have a current backup as far as I know.
I am unsure what to do now. How long should the Attempting Repairs run?
It seems like it should be a fairly quick process. So I am thinking a hard shut down and then a reset would be best.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.
