A way to make a PCIe M.2 M-key SSD harddisk external?!?!

Hi all,

Recently my Win10 laptop ended up in a reboot loop trying to roll back Fall Creators update. Everything I tried didn't work, so now I'm formatting it. But to save my programs and files saved in the programs (x86) folders etc. I wanted to turn it into an external HD.
Apparantly it's basically impossible to get an enclosure for M-key M.2 SSDs.

Does anyone have a solution for either the reboot loop or knows how where to find a cheap M-key M.2 SSD enclosure?

Thanks a lot in advance!!

Laptop:
Lenovo Legion Y520 15ikbn
Windows 10 Home
I7-7700HQ 2.8 GHz (3.8 GHz) / 6 MB Cache
16 GB DDR4 RAM
512 GB - M.2 SSD + 1 TB HDD / 5400 rpm
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti - 4 GB GDDR5

If it existed, it would be expensive. Very.
Anyway, boot using a Linux live CD/USB, or a WinPE image (i.e at https://www.raymond.cc/blog/5-system-rescue-boot-disc-based-on-windows-pe/ you have 5 of them), save what you need and reinstall Windows...
