How to run CHKDSK to repair bad sectors?

In Windows 10, chkdsk (Check Disk) is an outdated command-line tool that checks the integrity of the file system to repair logical errors in traditional mechanical hard disk drives (HDDs) or solid-state drives (SSDs). The tool also repairs bad sectors when data has not been transferred properly or there is a physical problem with the storage.

The only limitation of using the tool is that you will not get the scan results when you run the chkdsk /rc: command. Instead, the computer will restart immediately after the scan without any messages. However, the tool saves the scan results as an Application log, which you can review using Event Viewer.

This guide will show you how to check the results of a chkdsk command in Windows 10.
