Welcome to the HP Forum.

 

In my previous experiences; fixing bootloader file corruption is a tough nut to crack.

 

Try steps at this Site.

 

Check this YouTube video showing how to repair a corrupted UEFI system partition.

 

I use third party backup and cloning software to avoid having to reinstall the operating system.

 

You may have to back up system drive data. Then reinstall Windows if you cannot fix the problem.

 

I also do not store data on the system drive.

 

Regards

Sure, you can do a HP Cloud Recovery if your PC qualifies.

 

Or you can do a clean Windows 10 installation. W10 installation media can be created using this Microsoft site.

 

You might want to check your PC's hardware to verify everything is good to go.

 

Check your PC's hardware using HP Diagnostics as follows:

Start the PC. Repeatedly tap the "ESC" key.

Select "F2". Run extensive system and component tests to confirm: a drive problem, a memory problem, or other component problem.

 

Regards
