Checking the hard drive for errors
The Error-checking program examines the hard drive for physical flaws and file
and folder problems. This program corrects file and folder problems and marks
flawed areas on the hard drive so Windows does not use them.
If you use your computer several hours every day, you probably want to run
Error-checking once a week. If you use your computer less frequently, once a
month may be adequate. Also use Error-checking if you encounter hard drive
problems.
To check the hard drive for errors:

My Computer

My Computer
window opens.

2
Right-click the hard drive that you want to check for errors, for example
Local Disk (C:), then click
Properties

Properties
dialog box opens.
