Hi I'm having trouble getting past my login screen..
First of all, I installed AVG 2013 internet security. while setting that up, it kkept popping up with 'Threat Detected' coming from C:/users/cham/%appdata%/roaming/microsoft/windows_update.exe
I kept clicking ignore,thinking that it is not a virus.. then I restarted my laptop..
To which after the login screen I got a error message: "cannot find location c:/users/cham/%appdata%/roaming/microsoft/windows_update.exe"
So that was obvious that avg still managed to delete it..
I managed to find the windows 8 recovery window from boot.. and tried a system restore.
After that I got a new error after the login screen:

I tried to run in safe mode.. and it gave the same error message, with the same reactions to the continue and quit buttons.
I tried a system refresh - but that just ends up saying "there was a problem refreshing your pc. No changes were made.
I have no other system restore dates to go back to, only the one..
Tried Automatic Repair and it just said it cannot repair windows.
I don't know what else to do, if possible I want to be able to repair this without loosing everything. :|
Please help
Thank you in advance.
Edit: The laptop is a Toshiba Satelelite L450D, Running windows 8 pro x64
