Additional (Optional) Steps If The Tutorial Does Not Work For You:
Windows 8 and 10’s advanced startup tools do function a little differently from the tools on previous versions of Windows. If your Windows 8 or 10 system can’t boot properly, the tools will begin to appear automatically, making it unable for you to fix the problem.
Once you’ve accessed the advanced startup options, you’ll need to click (or tap) the Troubleshoot option to access the troubleshooting and repair options. The Continue and Turn off your PC options will continue booting to Windows (assuming there isn’t a problem) or power-off your computer.
The Troubleshoot screen provides easy access to the Refresh and Reset your PC options. This is particularly useful if you want to refresh or reset your PC, but can’t get into Windows.
Refresh your PC: Refreshing your PC restores its system software to its factory state without deleting your files or installed Modern apps. However, any installed desktop apps will be removed.
Reset your PC: Resetting your PC (not to be confused with rebooting your PC) resets it to its factory state. Any personal files and settings on your computer will be deleted.
If you just want to fix your computer and you’re not sure which option to pick, try Refreshing your PC so you don’t lose all your files.
For more advanced troubleshooting and repair tools, click (or tap) Advanced options.
The Advanced options screen holds the advanced troubleshooting and repair options.
System Restore: Restore your computer to an earlier restore point. This is the same as using System Restore within Windows. However, if Windows 8 can’t boot, it may boot properly after you restore your PC to a working state.
System Image Recovery: Restore your computer using a system image file. The system image overwrites your computer’s state and files. You’ll need to use Windows 7’s backup tools in Windows 8 to create a system image.
Automatic Repair: Try to automatically repair issues that can prevent Windows from booting properly. If your computer can’t boot into Windows, this option is worth a try.
Command Prompt: Open a Recovery Environment Command Prompt. This will allow you to run a variety of commands to troubleshoot and fix your computer. This option should only be used by advanced users who know what they’re doing.
Startup Settings: The Startup Settings option allows you to modify a number of startup options. For example, you can enable Safe Mode from here. You can also disable automatic restart after failure – this option will allow you to see the error message if your PC is constantly blue-screening and rebooting.
The advanced options here may allow you to fix the problem – the Automatic Repair option is especially useful, and the System Restore or Safe Mode options may help you boot your computer. If none of these options work, you’ll need to perform either a refresh or a full reset.
This tutorial will apply for computers, laptops, desktops, and tablets running the Windows 10 operating system (Home, Professional, Enterprise, Education) from all supported hardware manufactures, like Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, and Samsung).

Hello, I am having a problem with my computer. When I open it, it will then show a black screen saying "preparing automatic repair" and then show a blue screen saying "command prompt".

Two questions: Why would I want to run startup repair if my computer had started?? Why have you titled this video 'How To Repair Windows 10 using Automatic Repair' when its a startup repair tutorial only? Your missing an important piece of information from the title 'STARTUP REPAIR'.
Thank you keep up your work ✌

Thanks a lot it helped me a lot
I cannot open startmenu, because Windows is corrupted. Thx for nothing!
startup repair couldn't repair your pc
hi I am having the same problems with the same corrupted file error please tell me how to replace or fix that file
Funny:
the first step to fix a corrupted Windows is to open 'Settings'?
HOW? I can click on the Start/Search buttons, select Settings from the right click menu, but nothing happens..
That's what I want to fix, but cannot even get to the Update/Repair tools.
Windows10 is the biggest junk since Win 2000. I never saw that many BSOD events in the last 15 years before Win10 was enforced on me. Full of nonsense, sluggish, instable, odd and slow behavior in the Explorer, bloated and self-corrupting. My XP laptop runs error free since 2006.
What to do if the Win10 dismantles itself, disabling its own Menu functions, settings etc?
A complete new installation destroys all personal settings, wipes out programs and apps.
I might was well rebuild the machine with XP or Win7, to be on the safe side.
I got up the automatic repair and it went to a completely blank screen and stayed that way. It will now not even switch on. Thoughts on how to sort this?
