Windows 10: I did a system restore but after reboot broken again

As the title says, my PC "broke" so i did a system restore and it worked again. When i rebooted, my PC is broken again. And have to do a system restore... again. I only have 2 restore points, one which when finished starts installation of Visual Studio, the other does the same. Is Visual Studio causing this issue? Thanks.

Rebooting and requires a system restore

Hi John,



The issue could be due to an automatic update which happened on the device but got stuck due to a broken or corrupted component which has been downloaded during the update. To provide you with more appropriate troubleshooting, please provide
the following information:

• When did the issue started to occur?
• Have you done any recent changes on the device?
• Are there any error messages or error codes along with the notification that there is a problem with your PC?

As initial troubleshooting, we suggest pushing through the system restore since it’ll just send you back to the previous build. Afterwards, we encourage
checking for updates for your Windows 10 PC and installing it.



Don’t hesitate to get back to us if you have any updates.
