If you have a USB stick (~4GB) and access to a second computer then you could create a Windows 10 USB installation medium with Microsofts Media Creation Tool (please Google it, can't post links yet)
After that you can boot from the Windows 10 USB Stick and select the repair options, either that works or you simply make a fresh install with it. Be aware that you may lose your files on your laptop!

Help would be great. I have a dell inspiron laptop (not sure exactly what model it is) and I made the mistake of downloading windows 8 consumer preview when it first came out and installing it directly on the laptop rather than dualboot or usb stick. It worked fine for a couple of days and then out of nowhere it wouldn't boot up. When I press the power button the screen will light up and the w8 logo will appear but it won't go past that part. Sometimes It will say auto repairing itself but I've left it on for two days to see if it would fix itself but It didn't. Is there a way to get in safe mode to atleast re install the iso file? I've been without a laptop for a couple of months already and can't afford to buy a new one!

so am I correct in thinking you have no installation media at all for windows? any version?
If so do you have access to another PC because to be honest, your probably going to need it
I assume you have tried hitting F8 on boot to get to the boot menu and that didn't work either?
in terms of your hardware its cool, that's not the issue, the software is, having an install disk would have made things a lot easier....
Yes I have access to another pc and no I don't have any available. I downloaded a newer version of the win8 in ISO format and put it on a dvd disc and tried installing it through the f12 key right when you boot up. The disc drive started running but nothing happened afterwards. Windows recently released a new version of win8. Should I download that one and try it again the same way I tried the first time?

ok, you hit F12 to get in to the boot menu is that correct? then you selected the DVD drive and it made some noises but did nothing?
Ok, Boot menus can be troublesome
What I suggest is go in to the BIOS and change the boot order to DVD first THEN HDD, if that doesn't work then take the HDD out of the boot order altogether, you will need to turn it back on again though to complete the setup
also, I want you to see if the DVD boots on another computer, the first ISO I downloaded was corrupted and whilst mine booted it would always fail to install, re downloaded it and no problems at all
Its probably worth downloading the RP ISO anyway, the previous version the CP, was mass tested in the open market so any issues with installing wouldn't have been worked out in the CP, hopefully the RP would have got most of them,
Hi, i did what you recommended and it worked fine until the install process! It took me to the install screen and i pressed install. Afterwards it gave me the option of automatically doing the install or choosing custom options only. I choose the automatic and it told me that i had to remove the disc and restart the computer and re inster the disc for it to continue! The problem is that everytime i do that it wants to boot up the original way where it wouldnt work! Any ideas. Should i choose the custom option instead ( but i dont know what to choose if i do it that way)??!! Thanks for your help

HI!
Yes, you are right.
Boot to the install media, at the option to do custom, select custom.
When the screen loads showing the partitions (drives)
-Click advanced on the bottom right
-highlight each partition and delete them (this will loose all data saved there but unless you have a boot disk or usb or remove the drive from the laptop, the data is usless anyway)
At this point you can click continue, or next Windows setup will auto create the partitions it needs and unpack the files, then finish install.
If you get any issues with files missing or media is corrupt from the ISO, you will need to down load it again, use the MS download manager or some manager to ensure the download is good and the file CRC matches what they have on the download site. I have seen this a lot lately so don't waste your time restarting the install if it has an error while coping files, just get a new download.
I hope this Helps.

This does resemble a copy error, or even a hard disk/hard disk controller problem.
I have a desktop computer that will no longer boot up from any IDE devices (even if their properly formatted, it also includes any optical medium), Trying to boot from them results in a "DISK NOT BOOTABLE" (something around that, Acer's boot errors are different from the usual ones.
Anyway, back on track, before all that happened, I had trouble booting the computer from the IDE HDDs, sometimes it would boot and sometimes it stuck at the Windows 7 loading screen till it said a file was corrupt or missing, or it BSOD'd.
I also recommend re-downloading and trying the install again, in extreme cases, if you have another HDD to test, try installing it on a different HDD. If that works, the problem could be your hard disk (or something more nefarious, who knows ^_^

Are you trying to install Win 10 while booted in Win 7? I tried to upgrade this way too (on a desktop computer) and it was a nightmare, took almost 5 hours and failed each time. Ive downloaded the Win 10 ISO from MS's website, created and bootable usb stick using Rufus and made a clean install of Win 10 and everything worked fine and only took about 15 mites to install.
Make sure to create your bootable media correctly i.e: if you have BIOS motherboard, create a bootable media using MBR partition, if you have a UEFI motherboard, create it using GPT partition.
Boot in your BIOS/UEFI and change the boot devices priority so the computer boot from the usb stick and not the hard drive. then reboot.
Should now be booted in the installation menu
Go ahead and install windows, dont forget to backup your important files if doing a clean install.
Be sure to have your Win7 CD key so you can activate you Win10 installation.
There you have it kumar, will just have to seconded alray. Download the ISO file online from sites like getintopcdot.com and create a USB installation media using rufus. Then try installing again, also make sure you upgrade to version of windows 7 you are using so you can have an activated version of windows 10. I mean if you are currently running windows 7 home, download and install windows 10 home or if you using windows 7 pro, download and install windows 10 pro.

Since the only constructive response was "Reset your PC" without telling you how to do so even though you say "Settings and Windows 10 apps not opening", I will do that person one better and actually give you instructions for resetting.
Reboot your machine, at the login screen, instead of typing your password or PIN, hold shift and while holding shift press Restart from the Login screen (click the power button and choose Restart). Continue holding shift and it will bring you into the Windows Recovery Environment. Choose Troubleshooting, Reset This PC.
@ahmadus The user wouldn't be able to reset his PC without getting into Recovery Environment. As the Reset this PC function is exposed through the settings app that OP says does not open. In this case, the user may not know how to enter the Recovery Environment from alternative means. If you're going to provide help, actually provide constructive help.
@ShadowEO I thought reset pc is the easiest thing to do on windows 10.

It is, but it's only easy if you can access the Recovery Environment to start the process. The good news is that you can start the process using a Windows 10 Installation disc (either USB or DVD) by choosing "Repair your computer" instead of "Install" when the installer starts up.
Latest Version
Try this version: http://www.softolite.com/windows-10-lite/
This is the official trial version with the latest build.
Wrong, you should ONLY download media from sources you trust, such as the official Windows 10 media creation tool or ISOs available at https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10, THIS is the official URL to download Windows installation media. Also @CarlRock, all versions of Windows are trials until they're licensed, that blog is not the official source of ANYTHING Windows related.
You should also NEVER use a "lite" version of Windows unless you yourself built it, or you understand both what was removed and the consequences for removing that Windows component. Many users on the Windows subreddit go removing components without a full understanding of what they do or their full purpose in the OS, then come and complain that the system isn't working right.
Just use Windows as it was meant to be used. If you don't need a feature, don't configure it, or just plain don't use it. Dont just eviscerate it from the system without a thought to stability.

You can use installation media (a USB flash drive or DVD) to install a new copy of Windows, perform a clean installation, or reinstall Windows 10.
After you've created the installation media, you can reset or reinstall Windows. To learn more, go to Recovery options in Windows 10.

Windows S mode is locked in BIOS i think. I create new USB, remove all partition, create, new, format whole disk and after fresh install I have again Windows Home with S mode. Last time I had to unlock bios to perform install Windows pro.
Another method is download iso, extract it, remove Windows home image and pack it again, create USB and fresh install.
It worked few year ago and I believe it will work now.
Edit: Removing other Windows image from installaction doesn't work.
Edit 2: I don't remember how to mod and unlock bios. But after few full clean reinstalls I break S mode without ms login. Next I upgraded OS version with change product key (from ebay). I'm not sure it's the right way for my pcs, but it's enough for my clients. I think the only right way is mod bios and unlock slic.

i think you are using a bad program for making a bootable iso.the best program i think its rufus-1.3.4 for making a bootable iso win10 or win7 i will attached it here for you.i hope it will help.
just unzip the file and run the program after you insert your usb drive or sdcard
If the BIOS is well set and the flashable USB is ok (Rufus or Media Creation Tool -> follow online guides) turn poweron the notebook and by pressing F9 with the pendrive inserted select the last option "USB Hard Drive - SanDisk Cruzer Blade" than the Windows 10 logo should appear immediatly, and than the Win 10 installation menu.
Download the latest version of the BIOS and UEFI firmware on your PC, and unplug all the other USB drives connected to the device.
Will on windows, open pendrive and execute setup.exe. Check if start.
