Tips for using disk scanning under Windows XP

        When using Windows XP, many people will ask: "Why is the disk scanner missing?" This is because Microsoft put the Windows XP scan disk operation on the operating system when it is started, when the Windows log records A normal shutdown, a reboot caused by a crash, it will automatically run the ScanDisk program at startup. By default, you wait 10 seconds before scanning each partition, and the user can press any key to skip scanning and continue to boot. But if each partition has to wait 10 seconds to start scanning, plus the scan itself takes time, it is also annoying. In fact, if we want to set a partition scan as soon as the disk automatically at boot time, you can use the command to chkntfs
achieve its command format is as follows:

chkntfs /dc:

Where /d is a parameter, which means that all chkntfs default settings are restored, except for the countdown of automatic file checking.

/t The [[:]timefIEld] parameter changes the countdown time from the start of the scan to the time value specified in seconds (in seconds). If no time is specified, the /t parameter will display the current countdown time. For example, you can use the chkntfs/t:0 command to set the interval to 0 seconds, which is to perform a disk scan immediately at startup. The

/x volume parameter allows the computer to not check the specified volume at startup, even if the volume is marked for detection. For example, if you want to ignore the scan C partition when the computer starts, you can type: chkntfs/xc:

Tip

Note the following three points when using chkntfs: First, if the user wants to be in Windows To run chkntfs under 2000/XP, you must log in as an administrator; the second is that the /x parameter cannot be used cumulatively. If you type this option multiple times, the previously typed item is replaced with the most recently typed item. So if we want to ignore multiple partitions, we can use "chkntfs /x efgh"; third, users should not be scared by the ntfs in the command, it is also common to the FAT format.
