Hi all, really need some help here. My laptop turns on but Windows won't boot. The sequence is: Dell logo, with "please wait" sign Choose your keyboard layout Choose an option > Troubleshoot OR Turn off your PC There is no "RESET MY PC" option at any point. I have tried all of the Troubleshoot options, including: System restore (no restore points available) Startup repair Uninstall updates ("We ran into a problem and won't be able to uninstall....") I created a bootable USB / installation media, clicked F12, selected boot from USB.... This leads me to the same menu above (only Troubleshoot OR Turn off your PC --- no option to Reset my PC). Any suggestions??? Diagnostics show terrible battery quality so I ordered a new one, but is the battery likely to be the full problem...? Thank you!

Let’s try your Youtube trick again. Don’t do the line with the /delete.

Actually it should have that new account. Andrew 123123 or whatever you named it and password.

I did what you instruct. My laptop is back on it's infinite boot loop again. What am I gonna do? Thank you.

Need to get to the command prompt again and change the registry again.
