Hi Alicea,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

Actually, recovery drive cannot be found any where. However, you should create recovery drive.

Your PC might have come with a recovery image that’s used to refresh or reset your PC. The recovery image is stored on a dedicated recovery partition on your PC.

If you are unable to boot into the desktop follow the steps below and check if it helps:

Let’s try to repair the operating system files and check if it resolves the issue.

Let’s run Automatic repair from Advance options using a Windows 10 installation media.

Download Windows 10

Follow the steps:

a) Contact the computer manufacturer (or refer to the manual provided by Lenovo) to know on how to change the boot order of the computer. You will have to change the boot device to CD/DVD drive and then boot from the Windows 10 installation
disk.

b) When you insert the Windows 10 installation DVD, “Windows Setup” dialog box will appear. Set the Time and currency format, Keyboard or input method and the language to install and then click “Next”.

c) Click on “Repair your computer” from the lower left corner.

d) From the “Choose an option screen”, click on “Troubleshoot”.

e) Click “Advanced Options” in the “Troubleshoot” screen.

f) In the “Advanced Options” screen, click “Automatic Repair”.

g) Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the Automatic Repair.

Hope this helps. For further assistance, you can post your query in Microsoft Community.

 

Nopes u dont have to .. If you have a bootable media of windows 10 or any other old OS will also work. Boot from it and choose repair your computer to access troubleshoot Option.
In case you dont have any and have any other computer create one using this tool.

Have you anything else plugged in which may be confusing the boot process? I once had a USB flash drive plugged having an active partition which caused problems.

You could try resetting the BIOS to default values and forcing a hard reset by removing the battery for at least 1 minute.

Otherwise, run the repair process as mentioned above. If you have access to another PC you could also try installing Macrium Reflect Free, create a Macrium Reflect repair drive.Then boot from that drive and try the Reflect repair option - see http://www.macrium.com/help/v5/Rescu...t_Problems.htm

 

I created a bootable usb but it didnt change anything when I plugged it in. I think the cause of this loop is because I had a third party theme and I updated to the anniversary update when the theme was unsupported.

 

Did you change the boot order in the BIOS to actually boot from the USB repair disk and try the repair?

 

I restored my pc to factory settings it works fine now and is now using windows 7.
