How to Fix Windows Error Recovery Failed to Start?

Written by Lucy John on April 18, 2023

“I am unable to start my Windows system. It gives me an error message that states, “Windows recovery error: Windows failed to start”. There available 2 options to fix the error - 1) launch startup repair 2) Start Windows normally. Startup repair takes me to a blank blue screen (having nothing except cursor). If I try to launch computer in normal mode, a green bar emerges and it continues to roll. I am not getting how to muddle through this situation. I need to bring my system back to working state. I have very important works saved on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated”.
