First time I factory reset my computer it cailed and said "Undoing changes" as it did that it brought up my login screen. I go to login but now I am locked out behind an Error that persists with User Profile service Failed. So I go to factory reset again. It does the same thing. Undoes the changes and says that same error. I go for the third time but this time it is to fully wipe the computer. Gets stuck at 46% for 2 hours and then fails. Still the same error. I have been following guifes to do stuff in safe mode, but as I login to safe mode I am met with a blank white canvas, and cannot access anything at all. The window key + R or X does not work at all. I would like to fix this ASAP, it has been stressing me out. I don't know what to do.

    Thank you, and you too! You truly were determined and that is what I appreciate from you the most!

    Should I reply to this if anything happens with this Local reset?

    It got past the 46% mark.

    It did not. It got up to 65%, screen went black, and said Undoing changes.

    But something happened. I was able to login by waiting the Just a moment, but was shown white screens, i use dual monitors, so both were white screens.

    The task bars were flashing and my cursor was also flashing, i tried to open task manager but it never appeared.

    A friend was able to help me out and I purchased a 8 gb USB drive and it will arrive on the 15th at latest.
