Windows 10 integrates various tools with which the optimal functioning of the system is guaranteed since it can be prone to various errors, one of them is the system boot error which does not allow you to start the session and to help mitigate this error Windows 10 integrates automatic repair which works in a high percentage of the time but it is possible that at some point it does not..
