Windows 10: pc not starting following W10 latest update - automatic repair couldn't repair your PC

I have two laptops, one recently had a windows 10 update and the other thankfully has not. It took a long time so I left it on over night, turned it on in the morning and it straight away "preparing automatic repair" comes up and fails.

It won't go back to a previous version windows.

I've tried troubleshooting too and ran a few things in prompt but hasn't solved anything.

An option seems to be to download windows again to a USB drive, but I'm fearful of trying to do it on this computer and it downloads and installs it rather than downloading it to a USB.

Please can someone help?

Many thanks

Automatic repair couldn’t repair your PC

Hi,

This could be a very strange error that an Automatic Repair couldn't repair your PC. However, there's really a way to fix it.





You should see Windows 10 Boot Options menu after your computer will restart for several times. Once it shows up, you need to do the following:

1. Choose Troubleshoot > Advanced Options.





2. Select Command Prompt from the list of options.

3. When the Command Prompt appears, enter the following lines and press
Enter after each line in order to run it:

• bootrec.exe /rebuildbcd
• bootrec.exe /fixmbr
• bootrec.exe /fixboot

4. Restart your computer and check if the issue is resolved.

If the above steps didn't work, kindly check out the following thread:

• I've encountered the SrtTrail.txt problem
• D:\System32\logfiles\srt\srttrail.txt and 0xc000021a errors on boot Windows

• Automatic Repair couldn't repair your PC

Let us know how it turned out.

 

Windows 10 random automatic repair after changing boot priority.

Hello. So i have an Windows 10 Pro. Sometimes when i am changing in bios boot order from USB to HDD ( SDD ) windows starts booting with AUTOMATIC REPAIR and then restarting. Is this something with BIOS \ Windows 10 bug related? Tested on pc and on laptop , and sometimes it doing the same.


Situation on PC first,listen:

Few days ago after i change boot in UEFI BIOS from USB to SSD.
Then Windows 10 showed at 1 boot Automatic Repair.
When starting Windows 10 boot loader starts by "preparing automatic repair" and diagnosing pc.
Interesting is that if I restart Windows (after procedure mentioned earlier) it will boot normally. This startup problem was occured only when starting system again after shutdown or restarted pc from windows.So i was needed 2 boots to boot properly to windows.
But on pc, format was needed to remove completely issue and after format is fine.

Pc :
2x8gb Kingston Hyperx 1600mhz DDR3
SSD samsung Evo 250 gb
4790k stock
Asus Sabertooth Z97 Mark 2 with UEFI BIOS


Now laptop with old standard bios:
On laptop i made the same operation, change boot from USB to HDD and on first boot Windows 10 shows Automatic Repair. But it happened once and i cant reproduce. No format was needed.

laptop is very old with 2gb ram

Why on pc format was needed when on laptop not?



Thanks for suggestions.
