So wife was transfering some .png's from games files over to google drive so she could draw them. nothing out the ordinary but then she calls me over and says, "what did you do to my computer?" I ask her what she means then i see the blue screen i didn't catch what the error code was at that time. Well i tried rebooting it and it started fine and ran the disk check, then blue screened and says windows missing config files so i said ok let me get into windows recovery, so it restarted again and said it was missing winload.efi file and would have to try and do windows system recovery all fine and good but it turned off before i could hit anything and now when i turn it on it just goes blank screen and doesnt let me enter EUFI or anything no matter what i do if i hit any buttons or anything it will not respond. 

 

system specs

MSI CODEX R 10SC-006US - Intel Core i7-10700F - 16 GB DDR4 - 1 TB HDD + 512 GB SSD - GeForce RTX 2060 - Gaming Desktop

Windows 10 sometimes likes to completely destroy itself, unfortunately, and I've had a very similar issue with my computer too. The easiest option for me is to create a bootable USB via Rufus and Hiren's Boot CD, boot into it to back up any important files on the SSD, and reinstall Windows. You can completely skip the backup step if all your data is backed up, or if none of the SSD's data is important. To minimize the chances of this occurring again, I strongly recommend installing Windows 10 Enterprise or LTSC and running Windows10Debloater.

downloading Hiren's and rufus now will let you know how it goes and theres nothing worth saving at the moment

okay now that ive created the drive and stuff theres no bios USB slot nor a way for me to load the boot since the screen is completely blank with UEFI options or anything like any ideas?
