When your computer encounters startup problems, Automatic Repair diagnoses known common issues. These diagnostics include analyzing the startup log files to help determine the cause of the problem.

Once the Startup Repair tool determines the cause, it will try to fix the problem automatically. If it can't fix the issue automatically, you can use it to diagnose and fix more complex startup issues. This tutorial will show you how to get into Startup Repair and use the Windows 10 Startup Repair tool on your computer.
