    chek disk help
    « on: January 21, 2010, 06:40:19 PM »
    I ran  chkdsk c:
    and it checked my C  Drive and told me I had a fue  prablems.

    Then it says
    use the  /F  switch  to fix them.

    Now the way it fixs  bad  sectore is by  marking them so they wont be used.
    But if there is Data in them  the   /R  switch  will  put the Data in  good  secores.

    So why does it not say to use
    /F /R    to fix  bad  sectores  and relocate the Data????

    Or what am I not getting??

    As stated in your other post the /r switch assumes /f......

    It does both.

    So if you use /r you don't need /f.
