CheckDisk

CheckDisk: An intuitive application that enables you to scan and repair hard disk errors

CheckDisk is a useful utility that allows you to check your hard disk state, detect errors and attempt to fix them.

You simply need to select the drive that should be scanned, the test type and then you can start the scan process.

The program lets you select between the Standard and Thorough scan. The latter method takes longer to complete and for either scan type a computer restart will be required to fix any detected errors.

It’s recommended to close other running apps before starting CheckDisk’s scan process to prevent any data loss.
