Whenever my computer would power up, it would give me an option to troubleshoot it, or turn off my PC. When I click on troubleshoot it gives me another two choices, recovery manager, and advanced options. from the videos I can’t get into my computer. that I’ve seen they told me to click advanced options, and then those gives me six options. One is to start a prepare command prompt uninstall updates F i, firmware settings, system, store, and system image recovery. I’m not sure what to choose.
