Windows 10: Endless repair/restart loop with error code

My husband's windows 11 computer wouldn't boot into windows. Did a repair. Now it keeps trying to restart with a blue screen quick flash on stating "unexpected kernal mode trap" and does another restart attempt. It continues this loop endlessly. What should be done next?

Correcting An Endless "Automatic Repair" Loop

Hello again, Microsoft Community -- it's been quite a few years since my last Answers topic.

I have an HP Pavilion laptop that recently fell prey to a Windows 10 operating system error that triggers an endless series of "Automatic Repair" reboots which don't resolve the problem. After initially working with HP Customer Service (since the laptop had just narrowly fallen out of warranty by the time the problem occurred), I've since referred the matter to the HP Community Forums, from where it was recommended that a reinstall of the operating system should be attempted to correct the problem. The full details of the problem and the suggestions made to remedy it can be found on the links I am including below in the bulleted list:

• HP Community: HP Pavilion Laptop Going Into Automatic Repair Upon Startup; Am Unable To Properly Log In
  
• HP Community: Endless Automatic Repair Loop Upon Startup
  
• HP Community: Endless Automatic Repair Loop Upon Startup (cont.) [had to open a "separate" topic to continue after the original topic had been locked]
  

Currently, I am trying to perform a cloning of the affected hard drive before attempting the OS reinstall. As of now, I am running into a problem with a secondary laptop from which I am working; in attempting to install the Acronis True Image For Crucial disk cloning program onto an HP Stream laptop that runs Windows 10 In S Mode as its operating system, the OS prevents the program from proceeding into an install as a security measure, as it is not an approved application by Microsoft. As I am trying to back up the contents of the hard drive as a precaution before attempting a reinstall of the operating system, I would like to ask anyone here if there is a way to allow for the download of the Acronis program in S-Mode (without having to irrevocably switch out the license for S-Mode), or if a "Microsoft-friendly" alternate program might be recommended for use in S-Mode instead? Some alternate cloning programs were recently suggested to me in an E-mail by Crucial's customer service that I listed on this forum post, but I wanted to return to the Microsoft Answers page as a precaution before I tried anything.

Thanks in advance to everyone who responds to my post.

P.S. -- although many of my original topics are locked by now, none were ever fully resolved, so please feel free to visit my earlier topics and see if you might be able to do something about them now.

• SOFTWARE registry file for Windows 2000 Professional: available as freeware? [this one is kind of related to the above topic]

Again, thanks in advance for any assistance you might be able to provide to these older threads as well.

 

Windows 10 endless loop reboot

Hi,

• Have you checked if the hard disk is set as first boot device in the BIOS?
• Which version of Windows is installed on the computer?
• What did the HP supported suggested you to fix the issue?

I suggest you to follow the steps provided in the following article and check if it helps.

Redirecting

If the issue persists, please get back to us with the more information about the interaction with HP support and the outcome of the issue.

 

Stopcode automatic repair endless loop.

I am unable to start up in safe mode. I go through the process to either by the automatic repair or even by dos prompt and it will reboot but then say "my PC ran into an unexpected problem and has to restart" it will then reboot and go straight to the
automatic repair. Hence the endless loop
