I posted this on the Microsoft forums, but maybe i'll receive better support here. (they're no help unfortunately...)
When I try to defrag my hard drive I receive the following error:
What causes this error? How can I fix it?
What I've already tried:
chkdsk C:
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
sfc /scannow
<reboot>
Problem persists.
None of those operations gave any errors.
I have a regular HDD (not a SSD).
I checked the SMART values - no problems.
This is the first time I've tried defragging since updating to 8.1.
So it may have been caused by updating to 8.1.
