  • Fix Corrupt Files and Disk Errors with Chkdsk /SpotFix in Windows 8
    CHKDSK [volume[[path]filename]]] [/F] [/V] [/R] [/X] [/I] [/C] [/L[:size]] [/B] [/scan] [/spotfix]
    Volume: The drive letter, or volume name, remember that colon (D:).
    /F Fixes errors on the disk.
    /V Displays cleanup messages if any.
    /R Locates bad sectors and recovers readable information (implies /F, when /scan not specified).
    /L:size Changes the log file size to the specified number of kilobytes. If size is not specified, displays current size.
    /X Forces the volume to dismount first if necessary.
    All opened handles to the volume would then be invalid (implies /F).
    /I Performs a less vigorous check of index entries.
    /C Skips checking of cycles within the folder structure.
    /B Re-evaluates bad clusters on the volume (implies /R)
    /scan Runs a online scan on the volume
    /forceofflinefix (Must be used with "/scan") Bypass all online repair; all defects found are queued for offline repair (i.e. "chkdsk /spotfix").
    /perf (Must be used with "/scan") Uses more system resources to complete a scan as fast as possible. This may have a negative performance impact on other tasks running on the system.
    /spotfix Runs spot fixing on the volume
    /sdcleanup Garbage collect unneeded security descriptor data (implies /F).
    /offlinescanandfix Runs an offline scan and fix on the volume.
    Note: that many parameters imply other parameters. Incidentally, you have to precede the parameter with a forward slash (/), and not a dash (-).

    I have problems opening my iTunes. It told me that I didn't have enough privileges for this operation. I talked to someone about it and they looked at my computer and said I had tons of corrupted files and it would cost $200 to fix.. This video saved my life! Thank you so so much. 💕✌️😎

    I know all about the time wasted waiting for scandisk to complete at the shop i work. You don't need to do this if u got a SSD drive. but i have used on my older drives every 1-2 months and still working great. it's well worth it.

    Im a bit sceptical on this form of chkdsk, bit too quick.
    But its still good to know that microshaft have left the basic tools there in pseudo dos :-)
    Hope you and yours are ok and business is steady :-)

    After doing chkdsk /scan,I received a message "A snapshot error occurred while scanning this drive. Run an offline scan and fix"
    And when I did that,another message popped up "cannot lock current drive, windows cannot run disk checking on this volume because it is write protected" What do I do?!

    When I ran chkdsk /scan it found corrupt files, then promptly said 'repaired online'. So these seems to go against the claim that /scan doesn't fix anything.

I've tried system restores, refreshes, i have updated all of the drivers more time than i can count now please help me if you can sorry if this is too vague.

No one talks about what to do when windows will not fix the logical tiny bit of data on 1 bad sector. The cbkdsk /F/R spotfix none of these cheesy tools work.. It seems to me that i used to be able to identify which sector was bad on my computer and that way you could target that specific cluster..but, Microsoft sucks..they could care less is we lose 6 yrs plus 1 tb of data. It is nothing them..they only want your money when you buy something new
