Hi Ever wonder why help forums don't need us that much these days. Here are my thoughts. W10 has given us several ways to recover. There's nothing that beats a back up image on a external drive.
Here's some more ways to recover your W10 OS. What are your thoughts?

Hi! Yes I agree that using Linux as a recovery tool will require some technical knowledge, but if you have data you need to recover, that is one way. If you can't boot into windows, you can try to get into the advanced startup mode where you can try a reset or a refresh. Here are the recovery options for W10. Here's link from MS Community.

I think I have covered the ways to recover Windows. Sorry if I confused this thread, but there are things you have to learn about your OS, if you're going to be a Windows user, and learning how to recover is a must.
Here's my favorite way to boot into the advanced startup mode if you can't get there from inside Windows.
If your PC isn’t loading Windows 10 and you don’t have the operating system installation files, you can use the following trick.

If your PC isn’t loading Windows 10 and you don’t have the operating system installation files, you can use the following trick.
Start your computer and follow the POST, when Windows should begin loading, press the power button to shutdown your computer.-
Repeat the previous step twice, and in the third restart the operating system should enter into the Windows Recovery Environment (Windows RE), where a number of diagnostics will be performed to try fix any booting issues, but you will also get an option to access the Windows Startup Settings.
