[SOLVED] [Win10V1703Build15063 x64] Creators Update: Chkdsk Not Working on Reboot

[scottmandu]

Hi,

Yesterday I set chkdsk to run, but nothing happens on reboot. This behavior has changed after Creators Update.

I have tried everything recommended at the website below without success:
Chkdsk not working? - - Windows 10 Forums

Any ideas?

Regards
Scott

(If the hibernation is enabled) Try to disable the fast startup in Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Power Options\System Settings.

Thanks for the adviceFreeBooter.

The command: "fsutil dirty set C:" definitely causes a chkdsk scan on C: after a reboot. I do not have hibernation enabled.

From what I can tell on the internet this "chkdsk not working on a reboot" seems to be a Microsoft bug....but I cant seem to find any Microsoft mention of it.
