I accidentally removed my bootable USB flash drive while Windows was installing and now my PC won't even start up. It's stuck on a screen where it can't repair itself. I had Windows installed on two drives because I was trying to switch my boot drive, and now everything seems messed up. What should I do to fix this?

It sounds like you've run into some trouble! The best approach is to boot from the USB again and start the installation process over. Just a tip: it's wise to have only one drive connected during the installation to avoid any confusion with the boot manager.

Yeah, you really need to redo the entire installation. I know it’s frustrating, but just plug in your USB drive and follow the setup all over again. It’s a pain, but it’s usually the simplest way to fix things like this.

I feel your pain. I was in a similar situation, but you’ll just need to boot from the USB again and try to get back on track with the installation. If it keeps trying to auto-repair, it might be worth doing a fresh install after backing up any important data.
