Today I started my PC and let it load while I was getting myself a glass of water. Much to my surprise when I got back to the PC I saw the default "Restart or Advanced startup settings" so I just restarted it and got a Critical process died error. I restarted again but I got the same error. I searched for solutions on my phone, but most of them require me to log into Windows, but that error is keeping me from doing that. So naturally I thought about starting it in Safe Mode, but even in Safe Mode I get that error.
I found that I can run cmd without loading Windows so I tried a few solutions like "sfc /scannow" which did returned something like this: ”windows resource protection could not perform the requested operation".
So I tried "chkdsk C: /f /x /r", but that had an ETA of a few hundred hours, so I stopped it.
The next thing I tried is letting Windows do its startup repair and it repaired the C: drive, but that didn't help either.
I have Linux installed as well so I booted up Linux and tried to open the Windows partitions which resulted in this error: "the ntfs partition is in an unsafe state please resume and shutdown windows fully". I looked it up and with "sudo ntfsfix /dev/sda1" I was able to open up the C: drive from Linux and access all files. Unfortunately I still cannot boot up into Windows.
Long story short: I can't boot into Windows because of a blue screen with a "Critical process died" error.
I have a Linux dual boot with which I can access the Windows' drives if it helps.
PS: Unfortunately I do not have a recovery point.
