Problem:
A friend gave me his laptop to look at as it would not boot. The problem is, when it's switched on it goes to Acer erecovery management no matter what I try, this includes all the safe mode options. It also will not quit from this and the power button needs to be held down to quit. I don't want to do a recovery/install just yet as there is files that he wants from it (Photos,music and docs).
Solution:
When Acer eRecovery repeatedly appears it means you must continue with it if you want to get Windows working again. Since there are import data on the computer your friend needs, you should first move them out. If your friend had kept backups of all his files in a different location you wouldn't be in the situation you're in now.
Now, you can make a bootable media based on another healthy computer to boot his machine up, move his data out and continue Acer eRecovery Management work.
