my windows restoring got stuck with just a moment screen

[varshu]

I did restore to previous point for my dell laptop. It got restored, but after restoring it is showing just a moment blue screen with dots spinning from past 5 hrs. What can I do now?
I tried shutting it down but in vain. It is not getting turned off.
What should I do now to change it to normal

Hi,

Please do try these troubleshooting steps that may help in solving the issue.
- Do a hard reboot, remove the battery and unplug its AC adapter then press and hold the power button for 20 seconds then see if it will boot up.
- If it doesn't work try loading in Safe Mode, while the laptop is loading repeatedly press on F8 until it loads Advanced Boot Options and select Safe Mode.
- If it does load in Safe Mode you may need to retry System Restore.
- If these doesn't work you may need to reinstall Windows itself unfortunately.

Sounds like your boot manager may be compromised. You may want to download recovery media from MS website and do a repair of the OS.
