you're probably hitting the system's thermal trip point. I worked on a
prototype system from a customer that did this once, it made debugging a
Mission Impossible-esque adventure (I could get in about 1-2 minutes of
debugging before I had to hit GO and resume the system).
I'm not sure about why it's still rebooting into recovery mode though. If
you just hard reboot your test machine does it NOT boot into the recovery
mode?

Even with 'recoveryenabled' set to no in bcdedit if windows 10 is held on a
breakpoint for too long it kicks into recovery mode.
Its a new test PC I have, didnt see it on the old one. Are there any other
settings that affect this? I have goolged but with no luck.
Thanks in advance for your help.

You may find it convenient to disable some of the recovery features for test systems that frequently get rebooted when debugging early boot issues. I typically use this on my test machines for that purpose :
bcdedit -set bootstatuspolicy ignoreallfailures
If you prefer to use the legacy text-based boot menu (e.g. to conveniently switch between boot configurations in case the test OS becomes unbootable), you might also find it useful to enable that on your test machine :
bcdedit -set bootmenupolicy legacy
However, that is orthogonal to recovery mode.

If the target is spontaneously rebooting itself while at a breakpoint then you're probably hitting the system's thermal trip point. I worked on a prototype system from a customer that did this once, it made debugging a Mission Impossible-esque adventure (I could get in about 1-2 minutes of debugging before I had to hit GO and resume the system).

Why it should boot back into recovery mode though is odd, since recoveryenabled is set off, but thanks for the input guys.
