I want to have a wscript that sets the flag to run check disk at boot.

And then a scheduled task to run the script, probably weekly.

And then a scheduled task to reboot the computer.
(Using reboot.exe for this.)

Any one have an example script?

I use a batch file ( .bat ) with one line. In Notepad or any text editor:

echo y | chkdsk c: /f /r /x

Save as "Check_C.bat" . Use the quotes so it is saved as .bat and not .txt
 
Most excellent.

Thank you.
