SFC stuck at 34% what do

[TonyMah]

I've been running the sfc /scannow and it keeps getting stuck at 34%.

Hi! Apologies for the delay.

Are you still in need of assistance?

If yes, I would start with a HDD check.

• Download the portable version of GSmartControl and save it on your Desktop;
• Extract the zip file to your Desktop. Open the folder gsmartcontrol-1.1.3-win64 which should be located on your Desktop and double-click gsmartcontrol.exe to launch the program.
• Identify your drive in the list (if recognized by the tool), and hover your mouse over it.
• You should see something called: SMART status. It will either read: Enabled, in which case you should do the following:
• Double-click on it to bring up its window (usually you'll find your drive by its size or its brand name);
• Go to the Self-Tests tab, then select Extended Self-test in the Test type drop-down list and click on Execute (this test can take a few hours to complete);
• Once the test is over, the results will be displayed at the bottom of the window. Please copy and paste these results in your next reply or take a screenshot;
• Also, go in the Attributes tab and if you have any entries highlighted in red or pink, take a screenshot of the GSmartControl window and attach it in your next reply;
• Please note: If the SMART Status reads: Unsupported, stop and let me know.
