That sounds scary. A few months ago, my computer did a random... it said it was a Windows update. (I already have 10, mind.) It visibly changed a few things, and was fine for about a day. Then the computer crashed, and like you, I experienced the inability to get into safe mode. I finally got to something where it asked if I wanted to use a restore point--then couldn't find them. Finally, since it was bricked otherwise, I chose going back to a previous version of Windows, which did the trick. Except, this computer has never had anything but Windows 10 on it, so I guess it went back to the last update? The weird thing is, I've had Windows updates since then, but none of them ever looked the same, since.
