Tried diskpart or chkdsk?

 

Bow down to me humans.

I can't help if you don't quote me. How am I supposed to know if you need my premium support? Now starting at £399.99 a year.

Also, be a sport and mark the correct answer as the correct answer. It will help pour souls in the future when they are stuck and need guidance.

"If it works, proceed to take it apart and 'make it work better.' Then cry for help when it breaks." - Me, about five minutes ago when my train of thought wandered.

Remember kids, A janky solution is still a solution.

I've had this before and maneged to save it. If you don't know how to use chkdsk or diskpart:

Windows start icon, RIGHT click, then command prompt (or powershell) with admin, then type in

chkdsk /?

This will give you a list of commands. You'll probably want somthing like:

chkdsk D: F/

Just chiming in to say: the correct way to type it is with the / in front of F

chkdsk D: /F
