    Hi Anele

    Start your PC, just as Windows attempts to load (spinning dots), press and hold Power Button for 5 - 10 seconds to perform a Hard Shut Down

    Do this twice

    On the third start Windows will boot into the Recovery Environment and from there you can access System Repair, Safe Mode, Command Prompt . . . etc.

    Please try each option one at a time, then see of Windows will boot . . .

    Go to Troubleshoot - Advanced Option - System Restore

    Check to see if you have a restore point you can go back to

    If you do not have a Restore Point, go to Troubleshoot - Advanced Option - Startup Settings and click Restart

    Upon restart, press 4 to enter Safe Mode

    Once in Safe Mode, backup your data if you do not already have a backup

    Open Device Manager and check to make sure all your Drivers are up to date

    Reboot to see if Windows will start Normally

    If the above fails, go to Troubleshoot - Advanced Options - Reset this PC

    Choose to keep your files and apps, just your files or to keep nothing

    Then start the Reset

    Good day ! I am an independent adviser here to help you!

    1. First try an automatic repair by restarting your PC 3 times forcefully by pushing the power button for a few seconds until it is off then turn it back on.

    Go to troubleshoot > advanced options > startup repair

    If that doesnt work, continue

    1. try to use these 7 fixes here: https://www.technology.org/2017/11/14/7-ways-fi...

    Use Windows.old to get files back in case of a reset.

    Hi Anele

    Let us try repairing the existing OS.

    On a working computer, create an Installation media of Windows 10 that allows you to repair existing Windows Installation.

    Create a USB Flash Drive

    Boot from the USB Flash drive-Make sure you have disabled Secure boot/Fast boot in BIOS Settings.

    https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/21756-boot-...
    https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/21284-enabl...

    Then open Advanced Startup options after the computer boots from USB. Click Repair your computer at the first screen that says Install now.
    https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/2294-boot-a...

    Select Startup repair, let it finish the job and see if the computer can boot afterward.

    If that doesn't help, consider doing a clean install after rescuing your files.
