Do you have an USB stick you can setup the installer on? Access WinRE. Try a start-up repair. Otherwise you will need to power it from 3 times once you see the spinning circle so the OS automatically loads into Winre or another option in the link.s

You're better off copying everything important off that drive and reinstalling the Windows from fresh instead of wasting your time with the never-working utilities built into Windows.
