Windows 10: Auto repair loop

Today when I turn on my laptop, I get a black screen that says "preparing automatic repair" and then changes to "diagnosing PC". They take me to a blue screen with various options. I have searched the internet on how to solve this, but nothing has worked. Whenever I tried something, I ended up with a blue screen saying, “Your PC had a problem and needs to restart. We are just collecting error information and then we will restart it. "Okay, once the percentage reaches 100% it just shuts down and then the whole process repeats when I turn it back on. What solutions are there?

That's the first disk.

Auto Repair loop

Hi Windows geniuses! I've reached the end of my knowledge base, so now turning to you all for help.

My daughter's PC was off the other day. Unsure if it was turned off, or if there was a power outage.

Upon turning it back on she found it was struck in an auto repair loop. I had a look and none of the auto options work. I turned off the auto repair function and on booting get a 0xc00000f error.

I chased my tail for a while trying to work out why the EFI partition was missing. Turns out there is none because it's an MBR disk (not sure why....).

In Diskpart I can see there's 2 partitions. The main partition and a 579Mb System Reserve partition.

The main partition still has all the data on it. Although I couldn't pull the Windows product key off using ProduKey.

Bootrec /fixmbr seems to complete successfully.

Bootrec /fixboot gives me an "Access denied" error.

I'm now at the end of my knowledge. I found a few suggestions to fix it but they all seem to be in relation to GPT disks.

Any suggestions?

 

Stuck in auto repair loop

Hi Alex,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

If the screen is stuck for a long time on auto repair, I suggest you to restart the computer using power button and check. If the issue still persist, I suggest you to check if you are able to boot the computer into Safe Mode environment and check.

To use a Safe Boot option, follow these steps:

• 
  Restart your computer and start pressing the F8 key on your keyboard. On a computer that is configured for booting to multiple operating systems, you can press the F8 key when the Boot Menu appears.
  
• 
  Select an option to “Safe mode with networking” using the arrow keys on the keyboard when the Windows Advanced Options menu
  appears, and then press ENTER.
  

Hope this information is helpful. Do let us know if your issue is resolved. For any further query, feel free to contact us.

Thank you.
