According to
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-recovery-environment-0eb14733-6301-41cb-8d26-06a12b42770b
Select "Automatic Repair"
"If Windows fails to start correctly multiple times, it will automatically enter Windows RE. This can happen if there are issues with the boot process or if the system detects a problem that prevents Windows from starting."
The "Startup Settings" option allows booting into Safe Mode.
