I got an endless loop of automatic repair after a power trip
Long story short, it was storming and the power trip, luckily nothing got fried but the OS seems to have been corrupted from an improper shutdown.
This was on Windows 10 1809
What's happening:
- Bios splash screen loop (probably from trying to load up the os, which then disappeared)
- Automatic Repair loop
I've tried the following but it keeps coming back to the repair screen
- Normally continuing to Windows 10 startup
- Booting into safe mode (with networking, with elevated cmd prompt)
- Restoring a previous restore point (most recent May 16th, failed too)
- Restoring to a previous version of Windows (failed)
- Resetting the PC (both keeping files & without files)
So far all of these options that I've tried have failed and instead brought me back to the repair options
I'm already downloading a linux USB installer to grab my files and a fresh Windows 10 installer to start again but I was very much hoping to save it to not go through a fresh install
Any recommendations will be highly appreciated, thanks!
