I reviewed your post and I understand that the computer is not booting to Windows and you are getting a bluescreen error on startup.

 

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

 

The 0xC000021A error is a Blue Screen of Death or BSoD error that occurs when a Windows user-mode subsystem is compromised. To resolve this issue, you need to perform a recovery on the computer and this will reinstall the operating system.

 

Follow the steps in the below article to perform a recovery on the computer.
