Windows 10 repair loop
« on: May 11, 2016, 10:39:08 AM »
Hi,

I installed Avast Internet Security on my Windows 10 Pro machine. After installing I was unable to use the activation code or code license I created from the Avast website. It complained the license was corrupt and so. I also saw none of the background services were running (I actually just installed the file system shield). I thought rebooting sounded like a good idea to see if that would fix it. However then my Windows 10 just got stuck in an infinite repair loop.

Any help how I can undo the damage Avast has done so I can use my WIndows 10 again without having to reinstall everything?

No I cannot.
Also repair startup has no effect.

Are you able to access the command prompt from the repair menu
