  2. Why can't I run chkdsk?

    Hello Jack,

    There is a possibility that you are experiencing this issue due to some problem with the Administrator privileges. For us to effectively assist you, we would like to ask a few questions:

    • Could you tell us if you're logged in as an Administrator when you're trying to run chkdsk on your computer?
    • What is the exact error message that you are getting? Kindly send us a screenshot if possible.

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you try to disable the third-party antivirus software on your computer. After disabling it, try to run chkdsk and check if the issue persists.

    We're looking forward to your response.

    chkdsk c: /F

    We appreciate the response. I'm referring to Check Disk (chkdsk) utility tool. If you haven't tried yet, we suggest that you run a chkdsk by:

    • Press Windows Key + X button to bring up the power user menu.
    • In the power user menu, select the Command Prompt (Admin) option.Click Yes when you are presented with a UAC window requesting permission to launch the Command Prompt as Administrator.
    • In the new Command Prompt window, type chkdsk E: /f /r /x. Here you should replace E with your drive letter.
    This option will run chkdsk to check and repair disk errors in Windows 10. The “/f” parameter tells CHKDSK to fix any errors it finds; “/r” tells it to locate the bad sectors on the drive and recover readable information; “/x” forces the drive to dismount
    before the process starts.

    Keep us updated with the result.

    Run chkdsk/r on Win 10 PC

    I thought that maybe chkdsk/r was not running since there was no visual evidence. However, after about 2.5 hours, it did complete.

    I have been troubleshooting a "system hangs" trouble. I installed a Win 10 Repair Update but still have the problem.

    Windows Event Viewer shows Event ID 7 - Drive has a bad block. That event occurs every few minutes in the event log.

    I thought that chkdsk/r would fix but the event is still happening.

    I may have a bad hard disk.
