Windows 10: window 10 trying to restiore previoius version boot loop

HI


My wife's laptop is running windows 10. It recently tried to update, and seemed to fail. It now is stuck in loop saying 'windows 10 is trying to restore previous version' and is going round and round. I never get to the login screen. I have let this run for some 3 to 4 hours.


Meanwhile I have created a 'windows 10 media utility' and booted the broken machine via the usb. I have then run through various options like:

• system restore - it says there are no restore points available
• go back to previous version - 'we ran into a problem'
• startup repair - 'we ran into a problem' - gives a path to a log file 'E\$WINDOWS...'
• command prompt - when I poen this it reads 'Not enough memory resources are available to poress this command' and the prompt reads X: \Sources - I can follow instructions for suing the cmd prompt

I don't know what else to try


Please can someone help?


Thanks

Windows 10 USB boot

Hi there, am not a windows 10 expert. I have a pc in the bedroom on windows 10, I messed up the bootloader trying to fix the xp on that system.

System wont boot, trying to repair via win 10 usb installer.

Downloaded the media creation tool to install windows 10 installer on usb stick. Not compatible with a host of usb sticks I have. Tried the usb sticks that others use, but I think they use rufus; as the media creation tool by win 10 does not detect the usb stick.

So quick question, the win10 machine i am trying to repair the bootloader is a win7 upgraded to win10.
If i were to use the usb win10 installer to "repair installation" does the version of the iso downloaded via the media creation tool matter?

There is three options:
Windows 10
Windows 10 Home
Windows 10 N

Also is there a step by step instead of using rufus as I want to try an alternative method of creating a usb win 10 installer. Preferably with more compatibility.

System is a asus sabertooth 990 (r2?) with AMD phenom X 6.

Also is there any other software I can load onto the usb that can repair the bootloader easily?
That would be the ideal alternative. Thanks

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
