Hi and thanks, your number 6 method worked for me but the downside is that i have to keep doing it anytime i restart my laptop which is annoying and when i try to restart my laptop, i get a freaking blue screen of death and i get the automatic repair loop again. Even windows customer care couldn’t help me, they need to fix their sh!t.
Thanks for the help. Method 4 was the key for me. To help identify my registry was the issue, I disabled autorepair which gave me a new message when I restarted saying my registry was corrupted. However, step 10 has an omission.
It reads:copy c:windowssystem32configRegBack c:windowssystem32 where it should have “config” at the end, or else you are copying to the wrong destination. Your screenshot shows the correct copy location.
Thanks again, I spent several hours slogging through this until I found your site, and Method 4 fixed it. I see you are typing from drive “x”. Why is this x? Please explain.
I am not using a disk or external source, yet my drive letter is also “x”. I am stuck in “x”. I cannot change to “c” using commands like “CD”. They don’t work. There seems to be some mixup with the letters. Someone with this issue used external software to look at their device and found the c drive had become a ” g” drive, and other drive lettets were jumbled up also.
This just happened to me today and I’m lost. This is a good guide bit need checking as typing the wrong thing in cmd prompt can go bad real quick. Your methods to stop the loop locked worked. How to turn high contrast off on windows 8.
This allowed a new error to appear. The operating system couldnt be loaded because the system registry file is missing or contains errors. I will try the reg fix method once I get a disk and otp hub. Be aware once you switch the loop off and get the reg error you cannot get back to dos to switch the loop back on again unless you “press the windows key”. I don’t have that key on my tablet so had to buy a USB keyboard and plug it in the otg device.
I’m now going to switch looping back on till I get a disk. Apparently you might need a disk for the original instal, even if you upgraded!
Also when you are doing the methods and fixing the loop make sure you have a good charge as you cant see the battery meter. I’ll update once I get my Windows 8 disk.thank you. I might have caused this error by powering off as the tablet was already powering downwas it quietly upgrading? I don’t know but that was the last thing I did. Dear adityafarrad!!!Your article is very useful to me, I am Vietnamese should speak English is not good, although to use google to translate your post to follow but very easy to understand and repair my machine. When my computer broke down I went to google search many sites only repair ways including microsoft help page, but absolutely no help to me at all.
I see so many people do that without doing anything. Can I copy your posts to help them?
Thank you very much. Good luck to you always come!!! Hello All,Thank you for trying to help all of us dumb computer folks but I tried all 10 methods and NOTHING worked. I get the dreaded “your pc did not start correctly” and trust me, I went through the entire options of repairing.
Couldn’t restart, repair, restore, reset, All Advanced options which brought me back to “your pc did not start correctly.” After a week of this, I will be calling Microsoft for a tech, even if I have to pay for the service. I thought Method 1. The bootrec /rebuild method would work. But, the last entry of bootrec.exe /fixboot – access was denied.I do have the Sfcfix application on a USB to run a fix of the system but, and here’s my question to all of you experts: How do I run the application if the computer won’t boot?After trying all 10 methods, I’m exhausted!!!!! Please help.Thank you. Hello everybody,I tried all of the methods and nothing worked to get the windows 10 to start correctly. Please tell me: What can I type at the command prompt to let me use a rescue USB that has the Sfcfix application on it?
I have the application but if the system won’t boot, how can you use the application to get the computer up and running? Also, the computer won’t enable safe mode (tried f4 and f5) or any of the re-set 1-9 codes. I get the dreaded: boot critical file C:windowsbootresourcescustombootres.dll is corrupt. And srtsrttrail.txt.HELPthanks much.
