My laptop froze whilst using it so I ended turning it off holding the power button down. Turning it back on out it in a repair loop which eventually takes me to the automatic repair screen.

I've tried restarting it countless times but it keeps repeating the same process. I've tried to reset the laptop using both the 'keep my files' and 'remove everything' option but it comes up with an error. I also can't system restore because it comes up with an other error saying 'no restore points were found'.

The laptop came with Windows 10 already pre-installed on it and I don't believe I made a usb recovery drive.

I'm unsure where to go from here any help with be appreciated, thanks. :)

In the Advanced option settings, click on the option "Return to Windows 10"

Try booting from the installation media. You can get the latest ISO from here
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/techbench
Choose Windows 10, the first item in the first drop down (not single language at the bottom)
Next choose your language and your bit version (32 or 64 bit to match your system architecture or in the case of an upgrade, to match your currently installed version of Windows).
That will provide an ISO that will upgrade, repair (or clean install) either or both Windows 10 Pro and Home.
Once you have downloaded the ISO you can use ImgBurn to burn it to a DVD http://imgburn.com/index.php?act=download
OR
Rufus to burn it to a USB ThumbDrive http://rufus.akeo.ie/
When you've managed to boot from the installation media you need to click the Repair Your PC link on the second page after the Choose a Language and Keyboard layout page.
That should get you to the Advanced Troubleshooting options.
You can try a
System Restore from there
OR
Attempt another "reset"
Sometimes troubleshooting options that don't succeed from within the installation, work when you boot from external media, independent of the OS. Worth a try.
