Hi,· Were you able to perform a disk defragmentation on the system before without any issues?· Does chkdsk run on your system whenever you restart your system? Method 1:Check whether the chkdsk is scheduled to run in the Schedule task, if it is scheduled then remove it from the list, restart the computer and check whether you are able to run disk defragmenter. Follow the steps mentioned below.a. Click on Start and click on All programsb. Click on Accessories and click on system toolsc. Check in Scheduled tasks whether Chkdsk is scheduled to run whenever you start the system. Method 2:I would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below.a. Click on start menu and click on computer.b. Right click on C:\ and click on properties.c. Click on Tools and click on Check now button in Error checking.d. Click on the box ‘Automatically fix file system errors’e. Then reboot, let it run (do not hit a key to cancel)f. Once this is done, check whether you are able to use disk defragmenter.
