Crawl & other event errors regarding the search index

Hi, unfortunately your post is very difficult to read, lacking spaces after . in a number of places and no paragraphs to divide sections. This will deter readers and mean you get fewer responses. And a lot of *Biggrin.

Please run this from an admin command or Powershell prompt
chkdsk X: /scan

where X: is each drive or partition you normally index.
Note any failures.
This scans only- no repairs.

If that passes, then from an admin command prompt run
sfc /scannow
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

These have helped some who have experienced

If you still have problems, you can try Option 3 here
Rebuild Search Index in Windows 10
- note carefully the effect it has. I suggest you document what you currently have indexed.

When the index has been rebuilt, then check for any errors.

As there are so many errors, it will be wise to move from a point where there are no errors, and then expand indexing gradually to identify the cause.
