Just updated CCleaner and now I seem to have lost Chkdsk

[schnozzer]

I just updated and ran CCleaner before defragging my partiioned hard drive. Now when I go to the defragger and try to analyse the 'C' partition it tells me that Chkdsk is cheduled to run on this section and I should run Chkdsk /f but when I type that in run it appears to work as I don't get any error message but when I go back to try analyse the partition I get the same message again. None of the other partitiions have a problem just the C one. Can anyone help me with this as I never had this problem before I updated CCleaner today?

 

Thanks in anticipation.

Have you tried doing a reboot to see if chkdsk comes alive?

I think Chkdsk always tells me it will launch on restart.

 

Could CHkdsk only respond to an administrator and ignore user requests ?

maybe the partition has the dirty flag set and just needs it cleared.

I have never heard that term before (yea, I should get out more), so for any other uninitiated readers, some info about it including how to set or unset it ...

I'm sure mta won't mind me posting that.

you are correct Dennis, I didn't mind at all.

if I had not been rushed I had intended to give more details, but figured the OP would have enough to go on from there.

so, thanks.
