    Stuck in loop after Factory Reset


    So I went ahead and factory reset after not using the PC in a while, and it being slow when I last used it about a year or so ago. It is a Dell Inspiron 3252. Now my issue is the loop I'm stuck in. It first prompts me with the "Hi there" screen, asking me to set up country and language settings. After hitting next, it then says "Why did my PC restart" and other 4 steps about WiFi. I've got wireless, so it says to hit next for instructions, so I do. It just sits there for about 5 minutes with the loading circle and "Just one moment" and then shows the Dell splashscreen, and we're back to "Hi there". I've tried booting it into repair mode, but that requires shutting it off and on 3 times when the Windows logo shows up, but it hasn't been showing up for me. Any help would be appreciated. Won't be buying a Dell anytime soon if they can't get a reset right lol.

    :)

    Stuck on a reset loop after factory reset

    I factory reset my hp envy because i was selling it and it was doing the automatic update but was closed at 64% so it didnt finish but now it is stuck in a loop where the hp logo will show for a while then itll go to yhe update screen showing the 64% then
    the screen goes black and starts the process over. I believe it was downloading the windows 10 update. Any ideas?

    Stuck in loop after Factory Reset

    My acer laptop was stuck in an automatic repair loop but now is stuck at 1% of factory reset

    Okay, so yesterday when I turned my laptop on it was stuck at the acer screen. After some googling I turned it off and on again and repeatedly pressed f8 to to an automatic repair. This did nothing so I tried some troubleshoot options and none of them
    worked. I was left in a infinite loop of automatic repair. I then decided to do a factory reset, but now it has been stuck at 1% for about two hours. If anyone has a solution can you please tell me in baby steps because I am a complete noob at this sort of
    thing. I have an acer ES1-531 laptop.
