It saves the configuration to NVRAM. Out of the box, every configuration is running on the device in RAM. Copy run start is to commit it to the NVRAM storage. If you’re doing a password recovery, you would follow the Cisco instructions and then do copy start run to copy the configuration stored in NVRAM to RAM. And then change the username/password.
