Can't boot into Windows after update

:(

Win10 updated on my desktop last night. I wasn't watching it do it, but when I looked at the screen a little later, it was on bios menu. I rebooted, and still went back to bios. I can't seem to get it to boot into Windows! I've reset the bios settings and made sure the primary boot is the SSD. No other storage/USBs are connected. Just mouse and keyboard.

It's almost as if the update reformatted my SSD!? I don't really know what to do, short of reinstalling Windows?

 

Any help appreciated!

You can create a bootable USB by using a program called rufus and getting an ISO from Microsoft eval centre. This will allow access to your SSD and HHD and you will be able to recover your files. There are plenty of guides to using rufus on youtube. After recovering files, you can do a fresh install and paste youyr files back on.

Well that sucks. Damn MS! Never had an issue with updates before.

No major important files on there thankfully. Just all my games I'll have to download again!

 

Ok. Thank you for the suggestion. I'll look into rufus and give it a go.
