Hate to disagree, but a repair install is very different than using a repair tool like MiniTool, or Macrium Rescue (I love both of them). A repair install rewrites the system files and system registry entries. It will retain your user installed apps and most (99%) of your settings. It really is far different than just fixing boot records and MBR/GPT flags. Yes, it takes a while. Nothing that works thoroughly and deeply is going to run in just a couple of minutes. You could spend hours hand-picking various tools to run, and still need to do a repair install. It sure beats the alternative! And, obviously, backup first.
