Can't get out of automatic repair section

My laptop suddenly got stuck in automatic repair section. Startup repair, reset pc, image recovery noting is working.

Also, I checked that the diskpart command is only detecting the DVD ROM as vol 0. My hard drive is not showing up. So, I can't access any windows files to fix.

But my motherboard is still detecting my HDD.

I'm using a HDD. It doesn't display any error message.

When I type list volume, only can I see the dvd ROM as vol 0.

Also, I opened the notepad using CMD on startup repair menu. When I tried to save that text file, I noticed that -- 'This PC' section only has a drive called Boot(X). No HDD is visible.

I think I deleted something important while cleaning up the temp files folder, because after that my laptop started to freeze in every few minutes.

Lastly, My windows update is disabled.

Hi,
BIOS will not be able to detect a hard disk when the hard drive data cable is damaged or improperly connected. If the serial ATA or SATA drivers are not properly installed, hard disk is not enabled in BIOS, hard drive keeps spinning up, or the hard drive is corrupted, failing or dying, BIOS may also fail to recognize your hard disk.

You can do the following:

There is a third party application TestDisk , you may try that to recover missing partitions.


Download the Windows 10 ISO and go for a repair or a clean install accordingly.
