Windows 10: Recovery: Your PC/Device needs to be repaired

Imgur: The magic of the Internet

I googled it and tried some solutions but none of them worked. This is a friend's laptop. Not sure what they did to make this happen but we wanted to sell it and split the profits so I would prefer if it were in working order. Thanks.
