Windows 10: How to resolve pc stuck on a loop of booting to Automatic Repair on an Alienware/Dell?

My PC has been stuck booting into Automatic Repair ever since I deleted a folder called downloaded installations which was taking up a sizeable chunk of storage and a quick google search implied was fine to delete.The reason I believe this particular folder is to blame is when attempting a system restore, it came back with an error saying it failed to extract the file Alienware Command Centre Suite.MSI which was in that folder and therefore couldn't restore the system, there was only one system restore available and this was that one.Other things I have tried: Command Prompts:- chkdsk /r This
