But sometimes it fails due to a software conflict, corrupted files, or malfunctioning hardware components, and then you see the error message &#8220;<em>Automatic Repair couldn&#8217;t repair your PC.<\/em>&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reasons_Why_Automatic_Repair_Might_Fail\"><\/span>Reasons Why Automatic Repair Might Fail<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Windows Automatic Repair can sometimes get caught in a loop, continuously restarting but never successfully fixing the issue. Trying to reset the system through Advanced Options doesn\u2019t work, and even running command prompt fixes leads to a dead end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exact cause of this issue remains unclear, but it\u2019s often linked to corrupted files or system errors. The problem typically occurs in two ways:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Automatic Repair gets stuck on a black screen, displaying the \u201c<em>Preparing Automatic Repair<\/em>\u201d message.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Automatic Repair fails entirely, showing: \u201c<em>Automatic repair couldn\u2019t repair your PC.<\/em>\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So, in case that situation arises, here is a step-by-step guide with practical solutions to fix up the problem and restore your system to normal functioning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/outbyte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/How-to-Resolve-Error-Code.webp\" alt=\"automatic repair couldn't repair your pc\" class=\"wp-image-14563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outbyte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/How-to-Resolve-Error-Code.webp 960w, https:\/\/outbyte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/How-to-Resolve-Error-Code-300x197.webp 300w, https:\/\/outbyte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/How-to-Resolve-Error-Code-768x504.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solutions_for_Fixing_Automatic_Repair_Issues\"><\/span>Solutions for Fixing Automatic Repair Issues<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before trying these solutions, make sure that you nothing is amiss in the hardware or the usual operations of your Windows computer.

To do this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Restart your computer several times until the Windows Boot Options menu appears.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Head to Troubleshoot &gt; Advanced Options &gt; Startup Settings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once the system restarts, a list of options will appear.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select Disable early launch anti-malware protection.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Restart your computer and see it boot into Windows.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Remove_a_Problematic_File\"><\/span>Remove a Problematic File<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Corrupt files are often behind issues like the Automatic Repair loop. Follow these steps to investigate and fix the problem:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open the Windows Boot Options menu.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go to <em>Troubleshoot &gt; Advanced Options &gt; Command Prompt<\/em>. In the Command Prompt window, type:<br><code class=\"inline\">C:&nbsp;cd Windows\\System32\\LogFiles\\Srt SrtTrail.txt&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If there is a message saying the file is corrupt, something like, <em>&#8220;Boot critical file c:\\windows\\system32\\drivers\\vsock.sys is corrupt&#8221;<\/em>, open the Command Prompt and go to the file&#8217;s location.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use the <code class=\"inline\">del<\/code> command for deleting the corrupt file.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Restart your computer and check if the problem is resolved.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Perform_a_Clean_Install_of_Windows_1011\"><\/span>Perform a Clean Install of Windows 10\/11<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Should Automatic Repair continuously fail, then a clean install of Windows 10\/11 may be the solution to this problem. It gets the operating system installed fresh again, removing the installed applications, though it allows you to keep your personal files if you need them to be kept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that running Microsoft&#8217;s clean install tool will remove all applications that did not come with Windows, including things like Office or other software installed later. These applications are gone for good and will have to be manually reinstated if desired. Before proceeding, ensure that your system satisfies the Clean install requirements of Windows 10\/11.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"952\" height=\"446\" src=\"https:\/\/outbyte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Windows-11-Logo-1.webp\" alt=\"automatic repair couldn't repair your pc\" class=\"wp-image-14565\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outbyte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Windows-11-Logo-1.webp 952w, https:\/\/outbyte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Windows-11-Logo-1-300x141.webp 300w, https:\/\/outbyte.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Windows-11-Logo-1-768x360.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 952px) 100vw, 952px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>People Also Ask<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/outbyte.com\/blog\/how-to-downgrade-windows-11-to-windows-10\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How to downgrade Windows 11 to Windows 10<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/outbyte.com\/blog\/normal-cpu-temperature-range-while-gaming-and-idle-for-pc-and-laptop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Normal CPU Temperature Range While Gaming and Idle for PC and Laptop<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/outbyte.com\/blog\/major-windows-11-vs-windows-10-11-differences-you-need-to-know-before-upgrading\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Major Windows 11 vs. Windows 10\/11 Differences You Need to Know Before Upgrading<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/outbyte.com\/blog\/good-safe-cpu-temperature-check-optimize\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Good and Safe CPU temperature<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/outbyte.com\/blog\/how-to-fix-the-0x80070780-error-code-on-windows-10-11\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How to Fix The 0x80070780 Error Code on Windows 10\/11?<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span>FAQs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary><strong>1.
