    Hi. I've followed multiple steps to get out of a reboot loop. This is important to me as i have files I desperately want to save, otherwise I'd just buy a new laptop as ive been meaning to anyway.

    Have followed every step in this this video, for the command props. didnt work. (Even says 0 files where the guy says it shouldn't look like that)

    Windows 10, ASUS F510UA -AH51

    Wont let me run in safe mode.

    None of my restore points work.

    Finally, it won't even let me reset the pc (i get the "no changes" error.)

    I keep seeing some people in google search results suggesting using a usb to do a clean reinstall but that will wipe all files. Im just trying to save my files before dumping this thing in the trash. Please let me know if its possible before I go and waste more money trying to get it fixed only for them to tell my theyll have to wipe everything completely. Id much rathee just buy a new laptop if thats the case.

    Thank you so much.

    Edit: as for how it happened, the last thing I had downloaded was a game from steam. The last thing i had been doing was trying to allow local files onto spotify. I turned off my firewall for them to download (did nothing else during this time, it took only a few seconds) then turned it back on. I noticed my computer was slowing down more than it has been as of late, and trying to undo a stroke (drawing digitally) took over 10 seconds. I force shut down the laptop without thinking.

    That was it. No sketchy sites or new downloads. I dont know what happened but i regret it so much as I already feel like my files are gone forever.

    Windows 10 endless loop reboot

    Hi,

    • Have you checked if the hard disk is set as first boot device in the BIOS?
    • Which version of Windows is installed on the computer?
    • What did the HP supported suggested you to fix the issue?

    I suggest you to follow the steps provided in the following article and check if it helps.

  3. Stuck in Reboot loop after power cut

    Hi,

    We understand your concern and appreciate the time and effort that you have invested in to fix the issue.

    Before we proceed, I would like you to state which troubleshooting steps have you performed bedsides the mentioned to fix the issue.

    As per the description, I suspect that you might be stuck in a reboot loop. I suggest that you perform Power Drain and check if it helps

    • Unplug the charger and remove the battery of your laptop, if using a desktop remove the power cord.
    • Press and hold the Power button for 30sec
    • Plug the charger/power cord and restart system

    Hope this helps

    Regards
