CHKDSK Command Reference

These are the options you can use to run CHKDSK , the disk-repair tool included with Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP.

 CHKDSK [volume[[path]filename]]] [/F] [/V] [/R] [/X] [/I] [/C] [/L[:size]]   volume          Specifies the drive letter (followed by a colon),                   mount point, or volume name.   filename        FAT/FAT32 only: Specifies the files to check for                   fragmentation.   /F              Fixes errors on the disk.   /V              On FAT/FAT32: Displays the full path and name of every                   file on the disk.                   On NTFS: Displays cleanup messages if any.   /R              Locates bad sectors and recovers readable information                   (implies /F).   /L:size         NTFS only:  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              NTFS only: Performs a less vigorous check of index                   entries.   /C              NTFS only: Skips checking of cycles within the folder                   structure. The /I or /C switch reduces the amount of time required to run Chkdsk by skipping certain checks of the volume.
