Windows system 32 corrupted or missing

[savedan]

I was having trouble launching a game after it got updated yesterday, so I reached out to the support team to get it fixed. They asked me to do a clean boot and see if the game would wodk then, and linked the windows clean boot guide. I followed it, and restarted my pc per instruction, only to be greeted with the blue screen telling me that system 32 is missing.or corrupted. I got a flash drive and installed the windows installation tool on it intending to use the repair option, since that seems like the most popular opinion on the internet, but the startup repair tool doesnt work. If I click on that option in the repair menu i get the message "startup repair couldnt repair your pc"  about 5 seconds after i start it.

The only option at this point I see is installing windows onto my other ssd and booting off of that so at least Ill get into windows, but I cant imagine it being a good solution. 

Im running windows 10, i have 2 ssd's and 2 hard drives, one of the ssd's is a m.2 drive with the corrupted windows on it, the other one is a older drive that used to have windows before I moved it to the m.2. Doubt other specs matter, but i got a ryzen 7 3800x and rtx 3060, neither overclocked, 32gb quad channel ram.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
