Windows 10: Automatic Repair Loop/Bootup Delays

So a few weeks ago my PC began experiencing freezing on bootup, initially it would just take a couple minutes to boot. The first time it happened I did get an error message which said "WHEA Uncorrectable Error" and it changed my boot order to put the UEFI SSD on top, which would give me the error "Start PXE over IPv4 on MAC", so I had to put Windows Boot Manager back first. Since then, I get no errors, but booting up is problematic. At first it would get stuck in an automatic repair loop where hitting restart a couple or handful of times it would eventually go through, now I have to run chkdsk

Automatic Repair Loop

Hi Charlene,

Your concern regarding the device going into an Automatic Repair Loop can be caused by change on its settings/configuration or broken system files. To effectively assist you with your concern, can confirm if you've made any changes on your device prior to
your concern?

As an initial step to get back into the normal Windows screen, we suggest that you perform a
Startup repair. The repair will attempt to fix any broken components/files which may prevent your device from booting properly. To do this, follow the steps below:

• On theAutomatic Repair screen, select Advanced options.
• Select Troubleshoot.
• Select Advanced options.
• Select Startup Repair.

We'll appreciate if you can send us an update.
