    Information from chkdsk/r


    In the past after multiple blue screens I restored back to as new. As I have written before I've stayed very, very conservative using all MS major apps such as Mail, Edge and Defender. No problems until a short while after I installed then uninstalled Firefox Quantum. Within an hour a blue screen occurred. Could be simply coincidence. After a bit of reading I ran chkdsk/r. All now is good. Is there a way to discover what chkdsk/r found if anything?

    :)

    A question about the difference between CHKDSK, CHKDSK /F and CHKDSK /scan

    Really? According to CHKDSK /? or help, only CHKDSK /R does look for bad sectors, CHKDSK /F does not, only for file and folder structure errors.

    I did some research and come to conclusion that:

    1. CHKDSK command alone, like CHKDSK C: will just check the disk but it will not attempt to repair any error found.

    2. CHKDSK /F will check the disk and try to correct any error found.

    3. CHKDSK /F /R (according to CHKDSK /? or help CHKDSK /R implies /F even if parameter /F is not set) will check the disk, try to correct any error found and locate bad sector and recover readable information from bad sectors.

    Still I don't quite understand CHKDSK /scan. I guess it is a less thorough scan than CHKDSK /F, since can be performed as online scan without the need to reboot. But what exactIy is the difference between CHKDSK /F and CHKDSK /scan?
