Second: If PC doesn't boot to RE, or it can't fix this, you can download the Win 10 20H2 file for free from Microsoft and follow their instructions to create a bootable USB stick. Use at least an empty 8-GB USB.
Plug that USB into PC while it's off. Then power on and immediately start tapping F12. When the F12 menu opens, look for option to boot from USB.
When it boots from USB, look for the options to repair/troubleshoot.
