I have a light blue screen that states my desktop can't start correctly. Restarting doesn't work and none of the advanced options can be done it seems. Error message is BAD_SYSTEM_CONFIG_INFO

Have you tried all of the options in the "advanced"

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/error-0x74-bad-system-config-info-c0918f16-c812-2916-00d...

 

see if you can boot into safe mode.  If you can then create a new user and make the user an administrator.  Skip over any requests to uses an email or a Microsoft account and just create a local administrator account.  This will get you a new registry and you should use this new account for future login.

 

If you cannot get into safe mode post back here as we will have to re-install windows.
