    My C drive is dirty.


    Hello, today when I booted my pc there was a screen saying "scanning and repairing drive C:...". I found it strange and searched it up immediatly. Most of the tutorials said for me to do lots of stuff and in the end to go in cmd and use the command "fsutil dirty query C:". And in the end it was always dirty but the screen with "scanning and repairing drive C:..." dissapeared.To conclude does anyone know how to clean my C drive so it isnt dirty?

    :)

    Drive c: dirty

    Hi, I have a issue with my drive c: being dirty. I tried following the answer in this link Redirecting , however I don't see command prompt on the advanced options startup. I tried to run it from safe mode, but it is still checking every time I reboot. Is there a different process to use in windows 11?
