Chkdsk oddity
By chance checked diskpart commands on PS and found warnings regarding both USB drives (one a micro-SD).
Then ran chkdsk - but it reported no errors.Code:PS C:\windows\system32> Get-Volume DriveLetter FileSystemLabel FileSystem DriveType HealthStatus OperationalStatus SizeRemaining Size ----------- --------------- ---------- --------- ------------ ----------------- ------------- ---- D FAT32 Removable Warning Full Repair Needed 3 GB 3.69 GB K PARAGON FAT32 Removable Warning Full Repair Needed 6.85 GB 7.34 GB
Went ahead and ran the repair options anyway - still no errors found
Yet it did repair the filesystem anyway.Code:PS C:\windows\system32> .\chkdsk.exe /f /r k: The type of the file system is FAT32. Volume Serial Number is 3EA8-6180 Windows is verifying files and folders... File and folder verification is complete. Windows is verifying free space... Free space verification is complete.

Just a heads up... to check these before creating install media etc then running into problems etc.Code:PS C:\windows\system32> Get-Volume DriveLetter FileSystemLabel FileSystem DriveType HealthStatus OperationalStatus SizeRemaining Size ----------- --------------- ---------- --------- ------------ ----------------- ------------- ---- D FAT32 Removable Healthy OK 3 GB 3.69 GB K PARAGON FAT32 Removable Healthy OK 6.85 GB 7.34 GB
