Ive been trying to open my pc but when I do, it goes into automatic repair and goes into advanced options, Ive watched and tried multiple youtube videos on this subject but nothing works, resetting pc physically didnt work, ive tried multiple command prompts, booting it up on safe mode didnt work, and any other option on the advanced options menu didnt work, I didnt download anything recently except for an editing app and the videos used for it, and the most recent virus scan said that I had no problems. Its been like this for a long time and I seriously dont know what to do.

    Hi,Paoooo28

    You can try the following

    Use Command Prompt from the Windows 10 Startup Options menu.

    When the Startup Options menu appears, you need to do the following:

    1. select Troubleshooting > Advanced Options.
    2. Select Command Prompt from the list of options.
    3. When the Command Prompt appears, type the following lines and press Enter after each line to run it: bootrec.exe /rebuildbcd bootrec.exe /fixmbr bootrec.exe /fixboot
    4. To execute these commands, you need to know the disk letters of all the hard disk partitions. Type the following into the Command Prompt (but remember to use letters that correspond to your computer's hard disk partitions): chkdsk /r c: chkdsk /r d:

    Disclaimer: Running chkdsk can check the file system and file system metadata of a volume for logical and physical errors. To avoid any trouble for you, do not cancel or interrupt chkdsk, and back up important data.   More information please refer to this chkdsk | Microsoft Learn.https://docs.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/chkdsk

    1. Restart the computer and check if the problem has been resolved.

    Best wishes

    Hello Bobhe,

    Ive tried doing all the methods youve said,

    but it didnt work.

    1. For the startup repair it simply resetted with no changes.
    2. I didnt have a restore point available
    3. I dont have access to an installation drive nor a recovery drive.

    If its important, my windows version is windows 10, I didnt have any prior problems before the day of it happening, and its stuck on a loop that I cant get out of. On the automatic repair menu before the advance options, it shows a log file thats “D:\WINDOWS\System32\Srt\Srttrail.txt”. I hope this was helpful.

    Hello, Paoooo28

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

    I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing such a stubborn problem with your computer. It sounds like you've already tried a few troubleshooting steps, and you can also try the following suggestions:

    1. Startup Repair:

    In the Advanced Options menu, select Startup Repair and follow the on-screen instructions. This option attempts to automatically fix any problems that prevent your computer from booting up properly.

    1. System Restore:

    If a restore point has been created before, you can try to restore your computer to a previous working condition using System Restore. Select System Restore in the Advanced Options menu and follow the prompts.

    1. Recovery media:

    If you have access to Windows installation media or a recovery drive, you can try booting your computer from that media and selecting the "Repair Computer" option. From there, you may have other repair options available.

    Download Windows 11 (microsoft.com)

    You can refer to the following links

    How to: Perform a Custom Installation of Windows 11 and Windows 10 or - Microsoft Community
