I was replacing my cpu cooler and took out my cpu, but it slipped and landed on a pin. So I bent back the pin to the best of my ability, and it boots into windows, but in recovery mode.
Specs:
CPU: i7 7700k
MOBO: Asus Maximus hero VIII
SSD(Boot Drive): Samsung 850 EVO M.2
HDD: WD Blue 2 TB
 
Solution
There should be an option for a command prompt in recovery mode. If you have other OS installed you can try the folowing:

bootrec /FixMbr
bootrec /FixBoot

If that doesn't work

bootrec /RebuildBcd

If you get any errors with these, be sure to tell us what the errors are.

EDIT: typo in command

I can’t press anything, it boots into automatic recovery. Like, it won’t fully boot.
