I updated to the windows 10 creators update yesturday and today i just deleted the old windows installation thinking i wouldnt need it and it would give me back my 22gb on my ssd which is needed. I restarted the pc. It boots upp and you hear the windows sound starting up, but it only shows a black screen with windows icon and 5 dots going in circle which it means its loading. I need help how do i get back into windows. Do i wait for the loading to stop and wont i be able to repair or start from a different time of when windows was working? Cant believe i ruined my day by just deleting old installatio files. Please help thanks.

Ugh... Do you need to get anything off it? Pull the drive and slave it to another machine and do a clean install, might be the only thing. Sorry... Q others... the only other thing would be a partition restore or a backup, if you have one from fairly recently.

Sorry.
Well i left it running on the windows loading screen i got going here for awhile after that restart after deleting installtion files. Then i turned it off and turned it back on and waited for something to pop up after looking at the loading screen again for awhile. I then put in my windows 8 cd and booted that and tried to repair and system restore and it didnt work. Is that cause im using a windows 8 cd and im running windows 10?
 
Soo i downloaded the windows 10 ISO on my flash drive. Was having high hopes. I boot from the flash drive. It says it looks like you started an upgrade and booted from installation media. If you want to continue with the upgrade, remove the media from ur pc and click yes. If you want to perform a clean installation instead click no. I clicked no. It took me to the pick ur language and other stuff etc 2. I clicked on the bottom where it said repair your computer. The system restore did not work neither did the repair computer.
