  1. Win 10 failed this morning (automatic repair failure loop) ... coincident with fall update?


    Hi all,
    Hope someone here with a similar experience can help. I've spent the morning reading forums, but haven't found a solution to my current issue.

    I'm using a new (1 month old) Windows 10 pre-built tower. It arrived, I soon discovered, with a faulty motherboard. Once that was replaced it seemed to be working without issue ... until this morning (last night I shut it down for the first time in a few days; I think in the intervening time I installed the fall update? might be coincidental)

    Now it boots straight into the Automatic Repair blue-screen. This processes fails. In the advanced options, I've tried to use Startup Repair, System Restore, Previous Version, and even Windows Reset, but none work (the first fails, the next two claim there are no previous points to revert to, and windows reset fails).

    I've also tried to boot off of a Windows 10 media creation tool USB. That only seems to give me the option of a clean install of Windows or, by selecting the 'repair' option, puts me back into the startup repair bluescreen, with the same (non-working) options as earlier, minus Windows Reset.

    I'm nearly resigned to taking it in to the store for repair, but as they can't look at it until tomorrow so figured I'd try to work at it a little more myself.


    A few other notes:

    • I've run CHKDSK on my C: drive, and it turned up clean
    • I've run sfc /scannow and dism.exe /Image:C:\ /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
      though neither seemed to turn up anything or help. - strangely, if I disconnect my C: drive, I get the same blue screen circuit detailed above; but if I disconnect either of my storage drives, I get just a black screen with "reboot and select proper boot device"
    • I have accessed the DISMReportLogFile.txt in my System32 folder. There are a few warming messages therein (these relate from my most recent boot attempt, via the USB Windows drive):
      • "[...] c:\Windows may not point to a valid Windows folder. - DISMOSServiceManager: : Final_OnConnect"
      • "Failed to load the provider: X:\windows\TEMP\92DA3[etc]\PEProvider.dll. - CDISMProviderStore : : Inter [...]"
      • "Failed to load the provider: X:\windows\SYSTEM32\Dism\MetaDeployProvider.dll. -CDISMProviderStore: :Internal_GetProvider [...]"
      • "[1524] [0x80070002] FIOReadFileIntoBuffer: (1381): The system cannot find the file specified."


    If anyone has any ideas, I'd be very grateful!

    :)

  2. Automatic Repair Loop

    Hi Charlene,

    Your concern regarding the device going into an Automatic Repair Loop can be caused by change on its settings/configuration or broken system files. To effectively assist you with your concern, can confirm if you've made any changes on your device prior to
    your concern?

    As an initial step to get back into the normal Windows screen, we suggest that you perform a
    Startup repair. The repair will attempt to fix any broken components/files which may prevent your device from booting properly. To do this, follow the steps below:

    • On theAutomatic Repair screen, select Advanced options.
    • Select Troubleshoot.
    • Select Advanced options.
    • Select Startup Repair.

    We'll appreciate if you can send us an update.

    Windows 10 is stuck in Automatic Repair loop

    Hi Robert,

    Automatic Repair loop is a feature designed to help you fix some PC issues in Windows. It might fail to work sometimes and stuck in a startup repair loop in Windows 10.

    The two most common cases of the Windows Automatic Repair loop issue are:

    1. Windows Automatic Repair stuck on a black screen with "Preparing Automatic Repair" error message.

    2. Windows Automatic Repair failed and said, "Automatic repair couldn't repair your PC".

    We suggest that you try the solutions provided by community experts on this
    link
    and let us know how it goes.

    We will wait for your response.
