    Windows 10 update broke my OS


    So I decided to do a windows update. I'm using windows 10. After it updated for about 2 hours, it would not boot into the OS. I tried rolling back the update using the BIOS settings but I just keep getting error messages, when I set it to "windows rollback" it just boots back into BIOS. I try to set it to a previous version but the version I get is very old and broken, and when I try to access the start menu from this version, it doesn't work. Luckily, I can still access task manager but i can't even access the start menu from THERE. Not to mention how I can't even use a RESTORE POINT because for some reason, it doesn't MAKE restore points. I would just like to go back to using windows before the update. I have no idea which version it is exactly though.

    :)
