  2. Power went off in the middle of Windows 10 update

    I was in the middle of a windows 10 update when the power went off. Now I have an install windows error message when I try to restart.

    "The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an expected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install windows click OK to restart the computer and then restart the installation. "

    I have an ISO to try to reinstall Windows 10 but cannot get the computer that far.

    Hi Ko557,

    A corrupted system files is one of the possible reasons why your computer shuts down or restarts automatically. For us to assist you better, kindly answer the questions below:

    • Have you made any changes to your computer prior to this issue?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?
    • Which version and OS build number of Windows 10 is currently installed? To check, press the
      Windows key, type winver, and press the
      Enter
      key.
    • Do you have a third-party security software installed?
    • Do you receive any error messages?
    • Have you tried updating the drivers of your computer to its latest update?

    Meanwhile, if you are encountering a blue screen issue, I would suggest that you follow the steps in this
