How to use SeaTools for Windows | Seagate Support US


Sea Tools can be ran overnight.

I can't get Sea Tools to launch in Safe Mode. It launches in normal mode but not Safe Mode. I even went to the file location and cliked on the .exe file

What can I do to get this to open in Safe Mode?

Sea Tools was supposed to be ran in normal boot.

It was HD Tune to run in safe mode.

Ran the chkdsk as recommended.
I didn't receive any report after it finished

Report can be seen in the Event Viewer in the Application logs, under the source Wininit.
