Long story short. Windows updated and messed everything up, drivers weren't working so I did a system restore. But that never completed and now Windows in a reset loop. I tried everything recommended. Safe mode crashes, saving backups using command prompt results in 0 files with 0 data. When trying to do a system restore, this number 0x80070020 seems to be an issue. I read that is usually from Skype, which was just installed. Is there any way I can remove skype and fix that error. I feel that is the cause why nothing can be backed up, restore doesn't work and safe mode crashes.

Do I wipe the computer clean? Can I save my files somehow?
