Windows 10: Code bad_system_config_info

I've been locked out of my computer for a couple of days now, it gives me the error code bad_system_config_error and I've tried all the fixes that I've seen on YouTube but they didn't work? I'm just locked on the recovery screen, I tried resetting it too cause I had just given up but even that didn't work
