re: USB not removed safely Thursday, September 2, 2010 at 10:36 am Windows 7 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Jack Shaw (148 messages posted) A special thank you, Martin. CHKDSK /R worked like a charm. It took a while since I have a 500 GB hard disk. But it was worth the wait. For those of you who not be familiar with the chkdsk syntax, in Windows 7, it’s: “chkdsk /r P:” (don’t use quotes, of course), where P: is the drive being checked. Enter that syntax in the Start menu, "search programs and files" box.   Written in response to: re: USB not removed safely (MartinM: Wednesday, September 1, 2010 at 8:55 am) Responses to this message: re: USB not removed safely (MartinM: Thursday, September 2, 2010 at 11:11 am) All messages in this thread [show all] USB not removed safely (Jack Shaw: Wed, Sep 1, 2010, 8:39 am) re: USB not removed safely (MartinM: Wed, Sep 1, 2010, 8:55 am) re: USB not removed safely (Jack Shaw: Wed, Sep 1, 2010, 2:06 pm) re: USB not removed safely (MartinM: Thu, Sep 2, 2010, 4:31 am) re: USB not removed safely (Jack Shaw: Thu, Sep 2, 2010, 10:36 am) re: USB not removed safely (MartinM: Thu, Sep 2, 2010, 11:11 am) Reply or follow-up to this message Search this forum Start a new thread on a different subject Report abuse of the forum Return to the Windows 7 Discussion Forum
