Как отменить сканирование диска при загрузке windows 10

Способ 1: Утилита «chkntfs»

Для управления режимом проверки дисков при загрузке в Windows 10 имеется встроенная утилита «chkntfs» — используйте ее, чтобы отключить автопроверку дисковых накопителей. Утилита не имеет графического интерфейса, поэтому работать с ней придется через консоль.

1. Запустите от имени администратора «PowerShell» из контекстного меню кнопки «Пуск» или другим известным вам способом. Для этих же целей вы можете использовать классическую «Командную строку».

2. Введите команду chkntfs /x C: и нажмите клавишу ввода. Если нужно отключить автопроверку на диске D, укажите в команде его букву. Также буквы дисков можно указать через пробел.

В результате автоматическая проверка диска средствами «chkdsk» при загрузке операционной системы будет отключена.

Способ 2: Твик реестра

Для отключения автопроверки разделов накопителя можно использовать системный реестр, изменив значение одного из параметров.

1. Запустите «Редактор реестра», для чего вызовите нажатием клавиш Win + R диалоговое окошко быстрого запуска и выполните в нем команду regedit.

2. Разверните HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager, найдите справа параметр «BootExecute» и кликните по нему дважды, чтобы открыть его свойства.

3. Чтобы отключить автопроверку системного диска, отредактируйте значение параметра по умолчанию, добавив перед знаком звездочки /k:C, вот так: autocheck autochk /k:C *.
4. Соответственно, если нужно проверить другой том, вместо C укажите его букву. Также литеры дисков, для которых производится отключение, можно указать через пробел, например autocheck autochk /k:C /k:D *.

После применения твика нужно будет перезагрузить компьютер. Между прочим, стоит отметить, что отключать автопроверку диска при загрузке без особой нужды не рекомендуется, так как при этом вы утратите контроль за целостностью файловой системы. Более правильным решением будет установить причины активации автопроверки, которая может указывать на серьезные проблемы с жестким диском.

При включении компьютера постоянно включается проверка диска Windows

Обновлено: 23.01.2024
Опубликовано: 2016 год или раньше

Описание

Каждый раз при включении или перезагрузке компьютера начинается проверка диска, которая может выполняться, довольно, долго.

Мы можем наблюдать строку:

To skip disk checking press any key

Если нажать любую кнопку, то процесс прекратится и запустится система. Или мы можем подождать его завершения. Но при следующей загрузке проверка начнется по новой.

Данная проблема характерна для многих версий Windows (7 / 8 / 10 / 11).

Причина

Система Windows может пометить диск как «грязный». Это происходит из-за неправильного выключения компьютера, нарушениях в файловой системе или повреждениях самого жесткого диска.

Решение

1. Запустить полную проверку диска

Удобнее всего выполнить проверку из командной строки. Для этого вводим команду:

chkdsk /r /f C:

* где C: — имя тома, который нужно проверить. Ключ /r запустить полную проверку; /f — исправит ошибки, если они будут найдены.

Также, в случае проверки системного тома мы увидим:

Невозможно выполнить команду CHKDSK, так как указанный том используется
другим процессом. Следует ли выполнить проверку этого тома при
следующей перезагрузке системы? [Y(да)/N(нет)]

В таком случае, отвечаем Y и нажимаем Enter.

Также мы можем воспользоваться графическим интерфейсом. Для этого откройте «Мой компьютер» > кликните правой кнопкой по диску, который постоянно проверяется > выберите «свойства» > на вкладке «сервис» нажмите кнопку «Выполнить проверку»

в открывшемся окне поставте все галочки и нажмите «запуск».

Если был выбран системный диск, выскочит предложение выполнить проверку при следующей загрузке системы — соглашаемся и перезагружаем компьютер.

Ждем окончания процесса проверки. Если проблема осталась, переходим к следующему пункту.

Также рекомендую воспользоваться дополнительными утилитами для проверки состояния диска. Они позволят лучше оценить его работу и увидеть больше информации. В качестве примера, могу привести программы HD Tune и CrystalDiskInfo.

2. Отключить проверку диска

Мы можем воспользоваться двумя способами отключения проверки. Рассмотрим оба.

Командная строка (способ 1)

Нажимаем «Пуск» — «Выполнить» — вводим cmd — нажимаем «OK». В открывшемся окне вводим команду:

chkntfs /X C:

* где С — имя диска, который постоянно проверяется.

Теперь проверка отключена. Если захотите ее снова включить, необходимо набрать команду chkntfs /D.

Реестр (способ 2)

Если есть причина использовать именно настройку реестра, открываем его командой:

regedit

После чего переходим в ветку: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager и находим параметр BootExecute.

Значение по умолчению для данного параметра — autocheck autochk *. Нам нужно его поменять на:

autocheck autochk /k:C *

Это означает, что при загрузке системы мы должны проверить все диски, кроме диска C.

3. Отключение диска

Если идет постоянный запуск диска, который нами уже не используется, то можно просто его физически отключить. Есть, как минимум, два способа это сделать:

• Разобрать компьютер и отключить кабели питания и подключения к материнсткой плате.
• Выключить диск в БИОС.

При желании использовать диск в будущем, его можно отформатировать — постоянные проверки должны прекратиться.

Имейте ввиду, что на, какзалось бы, ненужном диске может находиться загрузочная область для старта операционной системы. Если после отключения диска, последняя перестала грузиться, возвращаем накопитель на место.

4. Чистка шлейфа

Плохой контакт может быть причиной проблем с диском. Пробуем выключить компьютер, отключить диск и почистить кабель с двух сторон.

Check Disk, or more often known by its abbreviation CHKDSK, is a built-in tool in Microsoft Windows to scan hard disk drives for errors and bad sectors and repair them. This short tutorial will show you how to skip or disable disk checking on Windows 10 or Windows 11 so that it won’t run on startup again.

Why is disk checking forced to run on startup

If a disk check is automatically scheduled to run every time you turn on your laptop or desktop computer without your consent, it can indicates two possibilities:

• Windows has detected unusual shut down or restart behavior.
• Windows has detected issues on one of your hard disk drives.

If you attempt to interrupt and cancel the disk check by “pressing any key”, you can temporary cancel the disk check for the current session. However, the disk check operation will repeat on every startup until the process can be completed at least once and that the disk has no issue.

What are the proper things to do

Let’s not ignore the obvious. Repeated forced startup disk check is an indication of possible disk errors or even hardware failure. The proper action to be taken is to let the disk check run to completion.

The disk check process will automatically scan for errors and repair them. Once the errors are fixed, Windows will stop scheduling disk checking on startup if there is no other issue detected in any of your disk drives.

If the disk check finds any error that can’t be fixed, it will let you know in the scan reports at the end of the scan. If this is the case, it usually indicates that your hard drive has started to fail or has already failed. You may want to quickly backup any existing data on the disk if you don’t want to lose them later.

How to skip disk check on Windows 10/11

There are two methods to force cancel a scheduled startup disk check on Windows 11/10. If one doesn’t work, try the other.

Stop disk checking via “Command Prompt”

1. On Windows 10/11 search bar, search for “cmd“. Right-click on Command Prompt from the search result and click “Run as administrator“.

   Windows 10

   Windows 11

2. Enter the following command:

   chkntfs /x c:

   

   Картинка с сайта: www.windowsdigitals.com

   • Note: Replace C: with the letter of the drive you wish to stop disk checking on Windows startup.
   • The /x parameter is to disable auto check for the selected drives on startup.
   • To stop disk check for multiple drives, add the drive letters to the end of the command. For example:

     chkntfs /x c: d: e:

Disable startup check disk scan via “Registry Editor”

Caution: Registry editing can cause serious problem and may potentially corrupt your operating system if incorrect changes are made. Please continue at your own risk.

1. On the Windows 10/11 start menu, search for and open “regedit” (Registry Editor).
   

   Картинка с сайта: www.windowsdigitals.com

2. In the Registry Editor window, navigate to the following path.

   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager

3. Double-click on the “BootExecute” key in the right pane.
   

   Картинка с сайта: www.windowsdigitals.com

4. In the “Value data” field, change the value to:

   autocheck autochk /k:C *

   • NOTE: Replace C with the letter of the drive you wish to disable disk checking on Windows startup.
   • To disable disk checking for multiple drives, repeat the /k:x. For example:

     autocheck autochk /k:C /k:D *

   • The /k parameter is to tell autocheck to stop checking C: drive on Windows startup.
   • Should you meet any unexpected result, you can change the key’s value back to its default:

     autocheck autochk *

5. Click OK to save changes.

Close Registry Editor and restart your PC. On the next Windows startup, the disk checking should not appear again.

If the disk checking persists on every startup

If the disk checking continues to run on every startup even after trying the methods above, you may want to seriously consider letting the disk check to complete the scan. If the scan finds any error that cannot be fixed, you may want to backup the existing data immediately before it’s too late, and replace the drive.

If you don’t care if the disk is faulty and that you might lose the data on the disk when it eventually fails, and just want to skip the disk checking on Windows startup, you can create a shortcut file to run the “chkntfs /x c:” (replace c: with the drive letter you wish to skip disk checking on startup) command and include the shortcut file as a startup program.

To create a shortcut file, right-click anywhere on your desktop, select New, then Shortcut. Enter the command as the shortcut path and follow the rest of the on-screen instruction to complete creating the shortcut.

Note that the shortcut file has to be run as administrator for the command to be executed successfully. You can set it to always and automatically run as admin by right-clicking the shortcut file > Properties > Shortcut tab > Advanced > Run as administrator.

To set the shortcut file as a startup program, press Win + R keys to open Run window. In the Run window, type in “shell:startup” and press enter. This will open a folder where all startup programs’ shortcuts are placed. Move the shortcut you’ve created to the startup folder.

After doing so, the shortcut to execute the skip disk check command will automatically be run on every startup so that Windows will automatically skip the disk checking on the next startup.

Windows 10 Stuck at Scanning and Repairing Drive

«My Lenovo running Windows 10 is stuck on boot and shows a message ‘Scanning and repairing drive (C:): 11% complete’. It has been hanging there for about half a day now! How can I exit out of scanning and repairing drive?»

Getting stuck at scanning and repairing drive is one of the biggest headaches for Windows 10 computer users. It happens when CHKDSK’s scanning and repairing hard drive seems to never finish, halting at a certain percentage value and not advancing. Generally, you might see Windows 10 get stuck at scanning and repairing the drive C: or D:. The scan will often partially complete, but then get stuck on a particular percent.

Scanning and repairing drive is a disk checking process in Windows Automatic Repair (the same as Startup Repair). When there is a boot issue on the computer, Automatic Repair will start automatically and you will see the computer screen showing Preparing Automatic Repair, Diagnosing your PC, and then Scanning and repairing drive C, D… You may also initiate the Startup Repair by yourself from the Advanced Options in the Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE). If the «Scanning and repairing drive» process gets stuck, it suggests that there is trouble reading the drive, which might result from disk connection issues or disk errors like bad sectors and file system errors.

Among the most frequently reported Windows 10 errors is the error message that appears on startup and says, “Scanning and repairing drive.”

Sometimes, the error message gets stuck on the screen, preventing your PC from booting properly.

Some users have even reported getting this error message every time they turn on their PC. Naturally, this can get quite annoying — but the problem is easily fixed.

From this article, find out why Windows is scanning and repairing your drive on booting and how to stop Windows from scanning and repairing the drive.

Why is Windows Scanning And Repairing Drive on Booting?

You will typically get the “Scanning and repairing drive” message when your computer hasn’t been properly switched off: due to a forced shutdown, a power failure, etc.

Why does it happen? When you work on your PC, your hard disk and RAM write and read data.

If your computer shuts down unexpectedly, you may lose some of the data stored in RAM — in the worst-case scenario, this can even lead to hard disk damage.

Thus, when you turn on your computer after an “improper” shutdown, Windows automatically scans your driver, trying to fix the issues that occurred during the shutdown.

Finally, we remind you that if you have a habit of performing forced shutdowns, it’s better to stop this practice to avoid potential startup errors—like the one described here.
