If it's running okay then don't run the repair program on it unless you create a system image first as the program has been causing problems for some on Win 10.

It has been blocking the mmc.exe for me so that I was unable to access Services.

Running the program a second time has cleared that error but it has also been partially hanging in Safe Mode after the reboot for some which means some normal services won't start.

Shane is aware of these problems and hopefully he will be able to resolve them soon.

Anyway, as it's getting on for 11.30pm here in the UK, I'm off to roost as it has been a long day.

I'm not into multiple disk partitions - the only ones I've had were the OEM recovery partition which I've deleted and extended to C:

Can you post a screen shot of your disk management and I'll see if I can get some advice on that as you should be able to perform a chkdsk.

Okay - Thanks.

Going back to your other thread, have you been able to get the repair program to boot into Safe Mode as someone else has reported an identical problem.

Can you reply to that in your other thread.

Well C: is quite clearly defined.

To view the chkdsk log open Event Viewer and ensure Event Viewer (Local) is highlighted in the left pane - if it isn't then just click on it.

When it has read the data expand Windows Logs - click on Application/View/Find then type chkdsk or wininit into the Find box and press enter.

Cancel the Find box and read the report in the scrollable window below.

You didn't answer my question as to whether the repair program will now boot you into Safe Mode.

That only has chkdsk x: /r in a Notepad doc and no report.

I had asked you to use the partition letter it gave for you if you performed the chkdsk in the recovery environment but if you have performed the chkdsk in Windows from a Command Prompt (Admin) you would only need to enter chkdsk /r

You can copy & paste the chkdsk log from Event Viewer after viewing it by clicking on Copy details/Copy details as text in the lower right pane then right click in the reply box and select Paste.

For some reason that duplicates the report when you paste it but as long as the log doesn't report any KBs in bad sectors then there's no need to post it.

EDIT
- That looks fine.

I'd already viewed it in your last post and added my edit as that looks fine.
