    Computer wont boot after attempting to enter recovery environment


    I think windows applied an update when I last shut down my pc, and when I turned it on this evening I got the message "undoing changes made to your computer" which was there for > 30 mins. After reading around the forums I tried to put my pc into the recovery environment by turning off twice after booting. Now when I power on the pc starts up, and the lights and fans come on, but none of my peripherals come on (mouse keyboard and monitor). Does anyone have a solution to this?

    :)

  2. Windows Recovery Environment

    Hi

    How do you boot using a USB drive and enter the Windows Recovery Environment? I was told that there could be an error in my "partition" and maybe be necessary to do "REPAIR THIS COMPUTER" option.

    Im running windows 10 1607 home 14393.2068. My bootable USB drive has w10 1709 version. would that work?

    Can anyone give step by step instructions?

    1. if I manage to get into WRE, can I exit? and boot normally afterwards?

  3. Windows 10 hangs and turns off on Windows icon splash page and unable to boot to Recovery Environment

    Hi,

    I realize the inconvenience you are experiencing with booting the operating system. Do not worry we will help you with this issue.

    As you are unable to boot the device using ISO file, this issue might have occurred when the boot files are missing or corrupted.

    Do let us know if you were able to see any error code/ error message with this issue?

    I suggest you re-built the boot record by following the below commands and check if it helps.

    You will have to use Windows 10 installation media to follow the steps to boot into Recovery Environment and try to rebuild BCD.

    As you have already created a media creation tool you may skip
    Step 1 and try the below.

    Step 1: I suggest you to create an installation media for
    Windows 10 using the media creation tool:

    Installing Windows 10 using the media creation tool

    Step 2: After preparing the installation media, insert it hard reboot the device and follow the below:

    • Boot into Windows Recovery Environment using the Windows 10 installation media.
    • Click on Repair your computer.
    • Click on Troubleshoot and in the Advanced options.
    • Select Command Prompt. Type the following commands into the prompt and press Enter key after each command.

    • bootrec /fixmbr

    • bootrec /fixboot

    • bootrec /scanos

    • bootrec /rebuildbcd
    5. Restart the computer.

    NOTE: Modifying BIOS/ complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings incorrectly can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from booting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting
    from the configuring of BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Modifications of the settings are at your own risk.

    Hope it helps. Reply to the post with an updated status of this issue for further assistance.

    Thank you.

    Hi Samid,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

      • In the ‘Windows setup’ page select the ‘language to install’, ‘Time and currency format’ and the ‘keyboard or input method’ and click on ‘next’.
      • Click on ‘Repair your computer’ and select ‘Troubleshoot’.
    Check if you are able to boot to this window. If you are unable to boot to this window, I suggest you to contact the manufacturer and check.
