According to Microsoft support, to check if your disk check schedule is really set to make a scan on the next boot (after running CHKDSK /F /R
command), you can look on Windows registry. This key (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\BootExecute
) should have the entry:
autocheck autochk * /r\DosDevice\C:
If it is just autocheck autochk *
, then the schedule is disabled and you will need to run the CHKDSK /F /R
, or manually change your registry with to include the /r\DosDevice\C
argument.
