    Microsoft has no rights to block me from accessing my own computer BIOS

    It is likely that the procedure described in the link below (which is also applicable to Windows 10) will let you access the BIOS with the applicable key press on startup.

    I have used it in Windows 10 to allow getting to safe mode with an F8 key press, which is also normally impossible. (I consider that to be a tremendous mistake on Microsoft's part - precluding a safe mode boot when it is most urgently needed for a system
    that won't start normally.) It should also be applicable to a BIOS trigger key.

    Preparing to configure Windows Dont turn off your computer stuck

    Hi,

    Windows configuration or even Windows update usually takes up a long time to be finished. To help you resolve the issue, try entering safe mode and see if the configuration will be finished. Refer to this

    article
    on how to start PC in safe mode. You can also try pressing F8 key continuously to enter safe mode.

    Update us with the outcome so we can provide further assistance.
