Stuck in EFI Shell (over my head)

Right now I'm stuck in the EFI Shell after looking for a solution to my computer not booting windows 10. I have had no problems with booting prior to this, just tried to turn on my computer this afternoon and it told me I needed to "select a boot device" or something of the sorts. I bought this computer pre built; and I have little to no knowledge of the hardware and how to even take the case of. I really need help because it makes 0 sense to me as to why it's even acting up, because from what I read, this seems like a problem with selecting a drive to get an OS, even though I had no problem with my computer or Windows 10 this evening. All I can think right now is how badly my computer is messed, probably because of me.

The select boot device msg can come from a failed hard drive or [sometimes] the incorrect boot drive is selected in the bios.

If this system is still under warranty, then contact the seller/builder. If it is not still under warranty, then you can attempt to ascertain the problem.
Is the system still under warranty?
