My laptop has been running very slowly for some time. I decided to rebuild it. The most important files I have stored on an external hard drive (pictures, documents, etc.). I started the process and was able to choose a region later (Germany). Now I only see a black screen for hours.

What can I do?

Cancel, format the hard disk and start over again.

if it gets stuck again, your computer has a problem.

Format hard disk or swap it for a fast SSD.
