Errors on external drive

Post by KenS »

I use XY to look at an external USB drive, right click on drive, select Properties, then Tools, then check, Windows (I assume) says "you don't need to check this drive", click on "scan drive", "Windows has found errors, close ... and then repair"

Ok, File Explorer, Properties, etc, etc "Scanning", "No errors"

But isn't XY just using Windows for most of this?

Does it every time.

Looks like a shell bug, probably only in the 32-bit world. Try to select Properties from the 64-bit context menu (Configuration | Other | Shell Integration | 64-bit Windows | Show the 64-bit context menu).
