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*

    Here is  command  for saving complete C  drive to another partition 

    F is  another free space partition and  C is windows partition

    Dism.exe /Capture-Image /ImageFile:F:\windows.wim /CaptureDir:C:\ /Name:Professional /Description:windows10 /compress:fast /checkIntegrity

    If you want to save only user  files means then type  below command 

    Dism /Capture-Image /ImageFile:F:\user.wim /CaptureDir:C:\Users\RAJU /Name:User /Description:Userfile/compress:fast /checkIntegrity

    files are saved in the format .wim . You extract the file using 7-Zip  software its  free
