Windows 10: Windows Recovery fails

Hi. After recent problems with my PC stuck in a loop of blue screen crashes and not retaining any document changes, I finally opted to try a fresh wipe and recover from the USB Recovery I created. Unfortunately, Windows 10 fails after 1%, informing me that recovery is not possible. I also attempted to download the Windows 10 ISO but I get random blue screen crashes very quickly preventing more than a couple of minutes access time after each restart. Also, I am unable to access the Safe Mode menu with the numbered options for Safe Mode and Safe Mode with Networking. My troubles only got worse

:)

When you finish testing the Avast suggestion, make sure that you restart your machine.

Then if the issue persists, please return to the trouble shooting list in post# 89

I think there are three steps that remain; the WU troubleshooter, reset WU components, and manual WU reset.

 

Data Recovery for Mac (OSX Capitan) ?

Anybody knows of a good data recovery software for mac? Preferably free?

I use Active@ Data Recovery for Windows, but honestly no idea what to use for Mac OSX.

Any suggestions?
