In theory, the auto-repair should be safe.
It told you what it needed to do in the error - chkdsk /r (/r = repair).
The only way to get that and only that is to use the manual recovery console (there is a prompt where you decide if you want manual or automatic)
Automatic recovery/repair tends to fix many things, even if they don't need it, all at once by resetting them to defaults and original install versions/settings. This _usually_ won't lose data, but it can hose programs.
