Message when downloading Preparing automatic repair (Windows 10): what to do?

Although Windows 10 is constantly improving and is considered one of the most advanced systems, alas, and it is not immune to errors. As with all previous versions, failures or improper shutdown lead to the appearance of the message Preparing automatic repair (Windows 10) when restarting. What to do in this situation, not all users know. That is why it is worth shedding light on this problem.

Message Preparing automatic (Windows 10): what to do?

In the most ideal variant, no matter how primitive this may sound, you do not need to do anything. It's just necessary to translate the message into Russian, and it turns out that this means preparing for automatic system recovery.

But with the recovery is not so simple. If anyone does not know, the most basic problem is that the operating system itself reserves free space on the hard disk just for creating and storing copies. In the same "Explorer" of the tenth version of Windows you can see many incomprehensible section of the system backup. Where it is is not so important. The main thing is that it is, and its use, as a matter of fact, is simply impossible to disconnect (except to abandon the creation of recovery points, which is fraught with unpredictable consequences for subsequent failures).

On the other hand, sometimes the recovery procedure seems to be working, but the system does not come back to normal, and again, when rebooted, a Warning Preparing automatic repair (Windows 10) is issued. What if this situation occurs? As it turns out, there are a few simple solutions for this.

What does this warning mean?

But before proceeding to solve the problem directly, it is worth noting that this situation may occur due to damage to the system components responsible for the restoration, or the usual shortage of the hard disk space reserved by the system, where, in fact, the copies of the operable OS with minimal Parameters.

In the simplest case, the problem of damage or lack of system components is solved quite simply. You can try to rollback if you download from a removable media as an optical disk with an installation distribution system or software environment like LiveCD. In this case, you just need to start the corresponding process from the menu. If this does not help, and the download loop again and again issues the Preparing automatic repair (Windows 10) message, what to do will be further explained. There are some nuances.

Preparing automatic repair (Windows 10): how to fix it?

First, when booting from a disk (if automatic recovery does not work), you should immediately go to the command-line section where you should register the recovery commands for the missing components of the sfc / scannow system, then run the disk check as chkdsk c: / f / R, then apply the lines to restore the bootloader:

• First Bootrec.exe and spacebar / FixMbr;
• Next - Bootrec.exe, and with a space / FixBoot.

After that, you need to reboot. If the message Preparing automatic repair (Windows 10) appears again, what will be done is clear when using the Bootrec.exe / RebuildBcd command (it completely overwrites the boot sector).

In some cases it is necessary to go into the BIOS settings, find there a line indicating XD-bit (possibly it will be Execute Memory Protect) and set the parameter to Enabled.

In the end, you can simply increase the reserved space, which is displayed even in Explorer, by creating a bootable media, and then applying the combination of reserved space with an inseparable region. But, as practice shows, there is usually no need for this.

In addition, there are not affected all sorts of utilities, optimizers. Here the priority of using a program belongs exclusively to the user. Unfortunately, and they do not always have exactly the impact on the system that is expected of them.

Moreover, some programs installed from some unofficial sources can block the operation of system services, disable some components related to the correct operation of Windows, or get up to the best of it. Therefore, when rolling back, you need to be very careful. If no means of the system work, you will have to check the hard drive, not only for errors, but for physical damage.

In principle, software packages for checking the operation of hard drives are sufficient. The software of Windows-systems can, of course, be used, but they do not always justify the hopes placed on them. Therefore, the best and, moreover, simpler solution can be the use of special system programs. For example, a unique program HDD Regenerator, it is believed, is able not only to restore the hard disk in terms of boot sectors with error correction, but also to re-magnetize the disks by supplying increased voltage. Many, however, on this occasion there are legitimate doubts, but some users claim the opposite.
