My computer wouldn't start and entered into an Automatic Repair. The automatic repair "couldnt repair [my]PC". 

It specifies the following Log file: E:\Recovery\WindowsRE\Winre.wim\System32\Logfiles\Srt\SrtTrail.txt

*Modified title for accuracy*

*Original title: Automatic Repair Error SrtTrail.txt*

    bcedit was not recognized as an internal or external command.

    I searched disabling the automatic repair via the command line and found: BCDedit /set recoveryenabled no. This operation was "completed successfully." However upon rebooting the computer the automatic repair was not disabled and I was not able to continue to windows in order to check the parameters you suggested and obtain the requested screen shot.
