  2. Preparing Automatic Repair/Diagnosing Your PC Loop

    Hi,

    To resolve your concern with continuously looping your system, we suggest that you follow the Startup Repair steps below:

    • Turn off your computer.
    • Turn on your computer. As soon as you see the Windows logo with the spinning dots, press and hold down the power button until your computer turns off. Do this process
      twice.
    • Turn on your computer for the third time, and let it load.
    • It should give you the message: Preparing Automatic Repair.
    • On the next screen that would appear, click on Advanced Options.
    • Select Troubleshoot.
    • Go to Advanced Options.
    • Click on Startup Repair.
    • Wait for the repair to finish.

    We would appreciate it if you could get back to us and provide us your feedback.

    Windows Freezing on “Preparing Automatic Repair”

    Hopefully someone can help me out.

    My PC kept repeatedly crashing during use and now when I try to turn it on it either gets stuck in a loop of re-booting itself, freezes on the windows logo or freezes on the loading icon of “Preparing Automatic Repair” before it loads up and I can diagnose
    whats actually wrong with my PC.

    Most solutions seem to require getting past Preparing Automatic Repair so you can understand my struggle when my pc decides to freeze at that point hahah.

    Anyone got any solutions? Thanks
