Try an SMC reset:
How to reset the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac - Apple Support
Try starting up in Safe Mode:
Use safe mode to isolate issues with your Mac - Apple Support
If neither of those work boot into Recovery and Reinstall Mac OS.
About macOS Recovery - Apple Support
Try Single User Mode (hold command-s keys)
At the prompt, enter this command:
/sbin/fsck -fy
Press the Return key.
This will check your directory and report that it was OK or repaired. Then enter this command to startup normally:
reboot
Run Apple Diagnostics
Press and hold the d key on startup:

What is preventing your MacBook from starting? When you attempt to start it, do you see the Apple logo? How far does it get before failing to start?
No when starting mac that time file and question mark is coming
In that case, I'd highly recommend trying what "macjack" suggested.
