Windows 10: Preventing chkdsk at boot

generic PC of high (Gamer) performance dual-booted with win 7 and win10

Some time ago unfortunate finger-trouble corrupted my win 7 installation since when it has apparently recovered (!) One consequence is a repeated request at boot (including win 10 boot) to run chkdsk for all drives and also three locations described as volume \\?\[string of hex characters]. I believe these to be consequences of the Win 7 corruption and repair. I was able to find the relevant cmd entries to prevent chkdsk running for the drives and this has been successful [chkntfs /x c:] (etc) Can anyone advise if there is a relevant switch to prevent chkdsk from checking these three 'volumes', please?

TIA

:)

 

chkdsk c: /F

It might be an error on the drive. We suggests that you follow the troubleshooting steps below:

• Run Disk Cleanup utility to clear your junk files.
• Open an elevated CMD type sfc /scannow and hit Enter to run the System File Checker.
  
• Once the scan is completed, restart your computer. Remember to exit ChkDsk
  during boot.
• Next, again open CMD as admin type
  Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth and hit Enter to repair the Windows image.
• Now see if ChkDsk able to complete the scan.

Note: Before doing the steps, make sure you save a back up of your files.

Let us know how it goes.

Windows 10 stuck in CHKDSK on Boot

Short explanation: On Boot, Windows tries to Check my C: for errors, stopps on 1% and gives BSoD. After that, Windows tries to automatically repair itself but fails and gives me those blue tiles to select what to do next. Nothing on this helps, the result
is always again checking C: for errors and crashing at 1%.

More Details: I guess, Windows shutdown in Hybrid-Mode (that it can boot up faster), but locked the NTFS partition it is installed on. Now, when chkdsk tries to check that partition, it failes because it has no write-access and crashes (propably due to ****
exception-handling). This is just a theory based on the fact, that i tried to run chkdsk manually via the CMD in the repair-options, and with the Attribute /F it says that it can not fix the partition.

Problem:

Should be obvious. My PC doesn't start. Instead it runns the loop explained in "Short Explanation".

Please help me, getting the NTFS Partition unlocked, so I can run CHKDSK or disable CHKDSK from running at Startup or any other way getting my PC running again.

Any kind of Help is appreciated.

Thank you.

Things I've tried:

• Reboot
• cut the power (provocating a cold reboot with unlocking the c: partition)
• several things in BIOS (mainly disabled Fast Boot)
• Booting from USB-Drive with Windows Installer on it (tried to run CHKDSK from there)
• Runned the startup-repair, said it would do some repairs, didnt work either.

Specs:

• i5 6600K
• 16 GB RAM
• ASUS Maximus VIII Ranger
• GTX 960
• SAMSUNG 830 SSD
• 2 other HDDs, nothing important
