Windows 10 Check Disk at every startup since creators update

Thanks for your response TexasBandit.

I did do that last night...

C:\WINDOWS\system32>Chkdsk /r

The type of the file system is NTFS.
Cannot lock current drive.
Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another process. Would you like to schedule this volume to be checked the next time the system restarts? (Y/N)

I then pressed Y and then I manually rebooted the laptop.

Still the same message popped up and it somewhat counted down from 8 to 7 seconds, but immediately went to the windows desktop screen.

Please note that I never press any key to stop the chkdsk process at startup... the laptop I guess boots up too fast and immediately goes to the windows desktop screen.

Cheers!

Here's a video capture of what exactly happens at startup...

What version and os build of Windows do you have? Run Winver to find out. The Creators Update (version 1703) had a known issue with Chkdsk failing to run at boot up. This was fixed in os build 15063.296. See...

Chkdsk not working?

So sorry Chkdsk /r did not clear the problem. After I ran it, the message did not reappear. Have you run Chkdsk from the admin prompt without parameters? This will allow it to run online. Does it give any error messages? When I ran Chkdsk online, there was a problem with the bit map. That was corrected by running Chkdsk /r. Perhaps someone else on the forum has a solution.

I did run this...

C:\WINDOWS\system32>Chkdsk /r

I think you misunderstood me. I meant run Chkdsk this way without the /r :

C:\Windows\system32\chkdsk

It will run online and should tell you what the problem is. Let me know what happens.

@TexasBandit.

I did this as well. Here were the results...

After running chkdsk and restarting I get the same message at startup.

Sorry to hear that. I'm out of guesses on this one. Perhaps some else on the forum can help. Good Luck!
