OK good :-)

When you ran my Windows Repair did you run the newest version and run all the repairs?

Hi:  I don't have tat program.  Now I have another problem :cry:  A message pop up telling me that my windows program was not authorized to call Microsoft for authorization, which I did, after entering authorization and rebooting I get a constant checking files system on "E"  it runs in 3 stages.  but at the end of step 3 it it tells me there is not enough space to do repairs.  When I try to open disk "E" it just hangs, eventually it opens and it does show the space is full.  I think all the problems are related to this.  Can this be fix?.

Thank you for all the help you can give me.

If the E drive has bad sectors as well it will cause problems. There is a reason Windows wants to scan it, it must have found problems on it and wants to check it. If you are able try to delete some files from the E drive and let Windows scan it.

If you do have bad sectors you want to get your data off as soon as possible.

Hi:

 The reason is scanning is because it has not finish the repair.  Like I mention before it does it in 3 stages it fixes the 1st and 2nd stage when it gets to the 3rd stage which is "Security Descriptors" is creating index $SII for file 9.  After it goes thru all the files it reports "insufficient disk space to correct errors in index $II of file 9. Then it finishes rebooting.

I don't know how to extend the volume of the drive when is full, so the scanning can finish.  Drive C and Drive D have plenty of room.
Can I compress the drive if is possible?

Thanks for all your help

Anyway you can just move some data off of the drive and then let Windows finish?
