The “Windows Error Recovery” issues usually occurs due to corrupt system files, hardware change or issue with Boot configuration data. However, the issue can be resolved by using the below mentioned methods:

 

  1. Remove recently added hardware
  2. Run Windows start repair
  3. Boot into last known configuration
  4. System restore
  5. Perform Startup repair
  6. Reinstall Windows

 

Further, you can also check the below link for steps to be followed in each method:
