Chkdsk at every startup

thunderman :

try this too chkntfs /x c: replace c with your drive letter ...

I'll be back after a little while to provide some clarifications on the impact of this command:
first of all, it works wonderfully, BUT it's not a lasting solution: if you have CHKDSK at every boot, there is probably a problem with the disk or the partition

this command just disables the check at boot, but the issue that was there in the first place is still present
for my part, I was losing file fragments here and there, namely on documents (photos, etc.), system files, application files e.g. illustrator was no longer working, one (or more) dll had disappeared (or was corrupted)!
in the end, I couldn't even connect to the internet anymore!

all this to say that sometimes it's better to format the partition

I ended up having to format, and haven't had any issues since

I conclude that my partition had a problem

IN SHORT:
this solution works well BUT is only a temporary fix I think
if you leave your disk like this there will be an escalation of problems,
there is no magic solution

try this too

chkntfs /x c:

replace c with your drive letter ...

Here is what I found and applied; after applying the recipe to each partition, it took some time; but after that, no more issues.

Hello,
if you see the message "Defragmentation of D:/ is impossible because the CHKDSK task is scheduled..."
you need to use the command prompt (programs and accessories)
enter the command CHKDSK d: /f and OK ("d" being the letter of the disk related to the error message)
your problem should be resolved.

2nd info:
Defragment
check in your Computer what letter is assigned to your removable drive (your Windows should be on C:, your CD drive on D:, etc.... and for example x: for your removable HDD)

In the Start menu, select Run..
type chkdsk x: /f /r
assuming x: is the letter assigned to your removable HDD, otherwise use the correct letter.

you need to start, settings, control panel
then click on scheduled tasks
and delete the task with chkdsk

that's all

nothing special, it won't erase your hard drive.
and for the descriptors, I don't really know what that is.

I do them, and I haven't had any problems

try my latest method with X as your reader

There's a fix for chkdsk, but it doesn't work on SP1

I don't know what a descriptor is; I need to study a bit then (Google). I'm overwhelmed for now. But if you find it, I'm interested.

Hello,

I have a message from Diskeeper (latest version) that says:
Diskeeper has detected that the execution of chkdsk is scheduled on volume (D:). This operation is due to a user request or because of errors encountered by the operating system in the file system.
But the problem is the same as sylvie64, each time I restart, chkdsk performs its verification without errors and then Windows starts normally.
It is impossible to defragment volume (D:), always the same message.
Please, how can we disable chkdsk?
Thank you.
I am using Windows XP Pro SP1a, Pentium 3GHz.

A big thank you to Thunderman for his miracle solution for that f...ing chkdsk at startup!!!
Phew, I can now start my PC calmly under Vista.
Thanks again...

fix for sp1

Hello, I still have the same problem since I installed PCBooster; I restored it, but the problem persists...

Thank you.

Thank you, it works, after the command, the PC worked a lot, and I made sure to do it for each partition; then, defragmentation is possible, and no more chkdsk at each startup.

Thank you, Thunderman, it's great.

Thank you thunderman,

For me it's the best with: chkntfs /x c:
where c is the drive letter.

Thank you, Thunderman!
Same as lela03

I also had a chkdsk problem on 2 hard drives at every startup of my computer which took 20 to 30 minutes if I let it run. The source of the problem was the loss of these 2 hard drives during writes to these hard drives, due to a faulty electrical connection of these hard drives. I was lucky that the problem didn't become intermittent, because when I opened the PC, I found that the hard drives were cold.

I tried a few things mentioned, except for those that disabled the startup test function, and the only thing that allowed my hard drives to no longer be checked was to perform a complete check of the hard drives "Properties / Tools / Error Checking". I checked "Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors" and launched the test which lasted more than 6 hours for a 2T hard drive. I checked if the problem was resolved for this hard drive before doing the same check for the second drive. And indeed, at startup, I no longer had more than one hard drive being checked, and it was the one that I had not checked.

I fixed my chkdsk problem this way.
