  1. Stuck in Enter the recovery key to get going…Win11


    So my pc was running fine until yesterday, i wanted to shut down my pc but it still not shut down after an hour. So i long press the power button and pull the power cable. This morning i wanted to turn on my pc and suddenly i had to enter the recovery key, once i entered the key it says unlocking and it’s been so long and nothing happened still says unlocking. I tried to access the other hard drive and ssd, it’s also being locked by bitlocker. Is it normal to take hours? Or there is problem?I read multiple questions that happened to be similar with this problem, most of the replies said that

    :)

    IF you cannot enter ADB then your drivers are not working. Download the proper drivers for the device and do adb.exe devices to see if it shows anything

    stuck in recovery

    Hi Alexander,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that your computer is stuck in Automatic repair loop. In this case, I would suggest you to try the following methods:

    Disconnect all external devices connected to the computer except essential devices like keyboard and mouse and then boot the computer and check. Sometimes, issues with external devices could cause issues with Windows startup. If the issue still persists,
    try the following methods.

    Method 1: Run SFC/SCANNOW command in Windows 10:


    • Left click on Start button.

    • Right click on Command Prompt (Admin) option which will let you run
      'Run as administrator’.

    • Command Prompt Window pops up.

    • Type: SFC /SCANNOW and hit Enter.

    You can also follow the link below for reference:

    Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files - Microsoft Support

    Try the following steps to run DISM scan to check and restore system file corruption:


    • Open command prompt by pressing Windows key + X and selecting “Command prompt admin”.

    • In command prompt, type the following commands and press Enter after each command:

      DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

      DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
    Check to see if the issue is resolved. If not, restart the PC.

    Method 2: If the above steps didn’t fix the issue, then I would suggest you to perform a system restore to an earlier date prior to this issue. Refer to these steps to perform a system restore from within the Windows recovery
    environment:

    • When you enter the blue screen with advanced options (Windows recovery environment), click on ‘Troubleshoot’.
    • Now, click on ‘Advanced options’ and then click on ‘System Restore’.
    • Follow the prompts and choose a restore point created before this issue started.

    Please let us know how it goes. We will be happy to assist you further.

    Thank you.
