A client of mine has a Windows 10 desktop she bought a couple of years ago. Last week a user (we think her grandson) tried to rollback to a previous version of Windows. But, since Windows 10 is the original OS on the computer, it's stuck. Asks for keyboard
language, then gives options to run Windows rollback or Windows 10. When you choose, it reboots and goes right back to the keyboard options. How can I get past this and fix the issue?
Corrupted system files after trying to rollback are one of the possible reasons why this issue is happening. Usually, restarting the computer should resolve the issue.
If the issue still persists even after restarting your computer, we recommend repairing Windows thru Advanced options. Follow the steps below:
Press F8 while booting your computer to access System Recovery options.
Click Troubleshoot.
Select Command Prompt.
Enter the following commands below, then press Enter after each command:
chkdsk c: /f
bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /fixboot
bootrec /rebuildbcd
bcdboot c:\windows /s c:
Once done with the above commands, restart your computer and see if the problem is fixed.
Keep us in the loop with the result.
