Disk Check on startup LOGS?

K

KG

After running computer, right click C: properties, tools. error checking, automatically fix file
system errors & rescheduling it to run at next startup HOW do you find out what it found on the
startup run. The error checking on startup completes to fast, to read the results, pause or break
do nothing, is there a log file generated and if so where? Any help would be appreciated.

check your event viewer

%windir%\System32\eventvwr.exe

listed as winlogon IIRC

Open the Event Viewer...

Start | Run | Type: eventvwr | OK
Look in Application | Listed as Information |
Event ID: 1001
Source: Winlogon
[[Description: This includes file system type; drive letter or GUID, and
volume name or serial number to help determine what volume Chkdsk ran
against. Also included is whether Chkdsk ran because a user scheduled it or
because the dirty bit was set.]]

[[When Autochk runs against a volume at boot time it records its output to a
file called Bootex.log in the root of the volume being checked. The Winlogon
service then moves the contents of each Bootex.log file to the Application
Event log.]]

[[This file states whether Chkdsk encountered any errors and, if so,
whether they were fixed.]]
