Microsoft is testing a new feature that will help fix PCs that cannot boot.

Quick machine recovery detects issues and applies fixes automatically from the Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE).

If a PC faces critical boot failure, the unit will enter WinRE and send diagnostics to Microsoft.

Quick machine recovery will then apply the fixes.
