  1. Stuck on preparing automatic repairs, can't get to safe mode


    Hi there.


    Laptop battery died while trying to do windows updates my bad. Now it won't get past preparing automatic repair even if left for hours. Read some stuff about force shutting it down to get into safe mode but haven't been able to get into safe mode.


    Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.

    :)

    Preparing Automatic Repair - Stuck - Not loading Windows

    After a recent update, and a disconnect suddenly, PC is stuck in "Preparing Automatic Repair". I rebooted several times including 3 times at on/off restart to try to get into Safe Mode. No success. Should my hard drive light be on while "Preparing Automatic
    Repair" is in progress? And, how long automatic repair takes to complete? How can I get to safe mode to do at least attempt a recovery from last operating image? Appreciate some feedback. Thanks!

    Stuck at Preparing Automatic Repair screen(Not loading)

    Hi, HasifElias

    My name is Smith and I am an Independent Advisor. I would be happy to help you today.

    Try entering Safe Mode to repair

    Press the power button to turn on your PC, then hold the power button down until PC shuts down automatically (about 5 seconds). Repeat this more than 2 times until you see the Preparing Automatic Repair (see below screenshot).

    Note: This step is aim to bring up Preparing Automatic Repair screen. When Windows doesn’t boot properly, this screen pops up and Windows attempts to fix the problem by itself. If you’ve seen this screen for the first time when you power up the computer, skip
    this step.

    .- Then wait for Windows to diagnose your PC.

    .- Click Advanced options, then the system will bring up the Windows RE (Recovery environment.) screen.

    .- On the Windows RE (Recovery environment) screen, click Troubleshoot.

    .- On the Troubleshoot screen, click Advanced options.

    .- Click Startup Settings to continue.

    .- Click Restart. The computer restarts and another screen opens showing a list of different startup options.

    .- On your keyboard, press the 4 number key to enter Safe Mode without network. (If you need to do some online research after boot into the safe mode, press the 5 number key to enter Safe Mode with network access.)

    Hope this helps. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.
