Windows 10: Factory resetting only leads to the advanced startup menu.

So when I click on Factory reset, it restarts the PC and says "Resetting your pc", at 50% it just exits to the advanced startup menu, and I have no idea why. I have tried everything:

• Running various CMD repair commands
• Using the Tweaking.com tool
• Restored my computer to a different period
• Booted into safe mode
• First going to advanced startup > Factory Reset

None of these have worked, so im at a loss.

• From the displayed context menu, click the Command Prompt (Admin) option.
• In the opened Administrator: Command Prompt interface, type the
  BCDEDIT /SET {DEFAULT} BOOTMENUPOLICY LEGACY command.
• Hit Enter to execute the command.
• Close the command window when done.
• After this, left-click the Start button.
• Click Power from the Start menu.

Factory Reset (help)

Look in your Start Menu program list for your manufactures folder. They often will have a restore to factory fresh program.

Additionally you can visit Settings / Update / Recovery / Advanced StartUp

Sometimes the manufacturer will have a method there to do the same.
