I have a CHKDSK scheduled to start next reboot, but I want to stop it.
A. If the command chkdsk /f /r (find bad sectors,
recover information from bad sectors and fix errors on the disk) is run,
on the next reboot the check disk is scheduled, however you may want to
cancel this check disk. To do this perform the following:
- Run the Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe). You must use
Regedt32 and not Regedit.exe
- Goto HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session
Manager
- Change the BootExecute value from:
autocheck autochk * /r\DosDevice\<drive letter>:
To:
autocheck autochk *
Clear and to point. but, when i attempt to run disk defrag it says it can't because chckdisk is scheduled to run. i looked at this reg setting, but it was set to what you recommend to have it off. so, must be somewhere else screwy
I find bootexectue by Edit-Find, then delete all value. So it passes chkdsk.
