Windows 10 Hangs at Spinning wheel after running chkdsk at boot
If I run chkdsk at a command prompt, and set it to run at boot, Windows 10 gets hung with a spinning wheel after completing the chkdsk. It does this for any disk, not just C:
at boot, it runs the chkdsk to completion but then hands at spinning wheel after.
screen says, with spinning wheel:
Scanning and repairing drive (C:) 100% complete.
it won't respond to ctrl-alt-del or even the power switch. I can press the reset button or power off and then it boots ok.
Windows will restart otherwise, no problems, but if I run chkdsk at boot, then it will hang every time.
within Windows, the Chkdsk from the command prompt, force dismount, will run to completion. Also can use the tool, scan disk, and not problems found for any of the disks. So I don't think it is a disk issue.
It seems to be an issue with the boot, after completing the chkdsk.
