Yesterday I ran to check for errors. "SpyBot S&D" asked me if I want to
allow this registry change to happen when I next booted up. I said yes, but
now EVERY time I boot up CHKDSK runs and takes almost 45 minutes to complete.

How do I change the registry so this doesn't keep happening?

THANKS, Gene

This may work, click Start > Run, type cmd and press Enter, now type CHKNTFS
/D (the capitals are for clarity only) and press Enter.

Alternatively, a registry key can be changed, it’s explained here
