Router(config)#Copy running-config startup-config
This is an incomplete command. However, this indicates that the running configuration will be saved on the device to a different location.
The IOS command to copy the running configuration to NVRAM is copy running-config startup-config. This command saves the current configuration in RAM (running config) to the non-volatile memory (NVRAM), ensuring that the configuration is preserved after a reboot. You can also use the shorthand version, wr or write memory, to achieve the same result.

The router command used to copy the running configuration to NVRAM is copy running-config startup-config. This command saves the current active configuration so that it will be retained after a reboot. You can also use the shorthand version wr (short for "write memory") to achieve the same result.
To save the running configuration on a router, you typically use the command copy running-config startup-config in the privileged EXEC mode. This command copies the current configuration stored in RAM (running-config) to NVRAM (startup-config), ensuring that the configuration is retained after a reboot. Alternatively, you can use the shorthand command write memory. Always confirm the save by checking the startup configuration with the show startup-config command.
RouterC#copy running-config tftp [copy run tftp]
It is short for copy running-config starting-config. Running-config is the configuration of the router as you have modified it and which is currently operating, held in RAM (gone after a reboot), and you copy it to the starting-config which is in NVRAM and gets loaded by the router when it boots/ So essentially you're saving what you have now to the persistent storage so your router will still work after a reboot.
