Product: HP Pavilion 590-p0081c
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I was using my computer as usual the other day and took a break. When I returned I had the screen saying that auto repair was running and would take a little over an hour to fix. I thought this was unusual as nothing I could think of prompted this to run (haven't installed anything new). I left for a few hours hoping it would fix any errors but unfortunately I returned and it said auto-repair could not fix the computer. I have no clue why this happened, so I'm not sure what steps I should take first. I know de-installing windows updates and using restore points are options, but does anyone have advice on what i should try first? I don't really know where to begin and I just need some precise directions about what I can try myself first before taking it somewhere to have it looked at. Thank you

Greetings @alsheets00 

 

Welcome to the HP Forum.

 

Windows startup problems can be tough to fix.

 

Maybe something in this HP Forum Thread can help.

 

Also check this Microsoft Blog for things to try.

 

Regards
