    I am stuck in Preparing Automatic Repair loop. After the Windows 4 pane screen comes up it freezes. Several miniutes later the Preparing messages comes up. Then again after several minutes a screen comes up saying to chose my keyboard type. US is highlighted and there are several other choices but again nothing happens

    Windows 10 is stuck in Automatic Repair loop

    Hi Robert,

    Automatic Repair loop is a feature designed to help you fix some PC issues in Windows. It might fail to work sometimes and stuck in a startup repair loop in Windows 10.

    The two most common cases of the Windows Automatic Repair loop issue are:

    1. Windows Automatic Repair stuck on a black screen with "Preparing Automatic Repair" error message.

    2. Windows Automatic Repair failed and said, "Automatic repair couldn't repair your PC".

    We suggest that you try the solutions provided by community experts on this
    link
    and let us know how it goes.

    We will wait for your response.

    Preparing Automatic Repair loop

    1) I created a USB boot disk via the Media Create Tool.

    2) Powered on with that drive and it was indeed selected as boot. It blinked during startup but again went into loop. Similar to "Preparing Automatic Repair" loop except no such words. The loop now consists of just the Dell splash screen and a half circle
    of dots below. Repeats forever.

    Have I missed something or done something incorrectly? Any other suggestions?

    Thanks.
