Solved! Stuck on Startup

[traycearm]

When I turn on my laptop it gets stuck on the Acer startup screen showing the spinning dots at the bottom. I tried turning it off and on and the problem persisted. When I tried using the automatic repair, it gets stuck on the “Preparing Automatic Repair” screen. Is there anyway to fix this myself?

This could likely be a failing hard drive, you can get a new drive and install Windows clean on that.
