So I woke up today to my pc being stuck in a automatic repair loop and when I try to reset the pc it says i don't got enough space. I don't have access to a windows 10 CD or a usb and I don't have another pc. Please help!

  • Are you able to use the machine in safe mode, or at all?
  • You can get a windows 10 disk from here.
  • Options for resetting PC here....
 
I have tried safe mode and it still loops and I don't have access to another pc to download windows 10 to a usb.
 
You could use your phone to download it, and install windows as well. This app will allow such a process to happen. :)
 
Question is if you have enough storage space on the phone....
Windows 10 is roughly 4 gigs.
 
It is certainly worth a shot, I'd give it a go and see if it works....
 
Other option is perhaps a system restore from the recovery options.... Or possibly a checkdisk may help you as well...

If you are trying to send an image, I can not see it... Perhaps use Imgur to host it.
 
Are you able to try a system restore?

Also, what checkdisk did you run? From a command prompt type chkdsk /f /r Or for system restore type rstrui.exe
 
System restore will do work since I have no restore points to go back to and chkdsk found errors but when I type chkdsk /F it says the type of the file system is NTSF. Cannot lock current drive. Windows cannot run disk checking on this volume because it is write protected.
 
Well. You may need to wait until you are able to have access to another machine to download the disk... Or use a friends machine, or depending on where you live an internet cafe...
