We'll need more info. The simplest way would be to go to another computer and create a boot USB such as a linux LiveUSB, or a Macrium Reflect or EaseUS recovery USB. The last two boot into a WindowsPE OS. Howeever, if you are running Windows and have enabled BitLocker you will need your recovery key.

Another way (may also need the BitLocker key) would be to remove your SSD/HDD and mount it in an external case, then plug it in to another computer.

Of course, the easiest way would be to just get the files from your backup media. You do backups, don't you?
