account only takes a few minutes. Join Now I have an on-site tech who against my direct order started a chkdsk /r on a 2TB hard drive for a system we are trying to get back in production right away. Waiting the 2-3 hours for the scan to run is not palatable, and I https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/142733-can-you-cancel-chkdsk-while-it-is-running would prefer not to just shut the PC off. I had him try Control-C and the pause break key, but it just keeps going. My Google luck is dry, and I'm only seeing a) don't b) how to cancel from running. Does anyone here know how to cancel, other than the power switch?

You will be risking losing some data by simply restarting and there is no other way to abort it once it has started running.  If you can not wait for it to finish the it is up to you to decide if you should risk damage to the data on the disk versus letting it runs its course.  0 Jalapeno OP sam_anderson Jun 8, 2011 at 12:14 UTC AIUI there is not and stopping it with a lack of power would be a bad idea...

In this case the result would be exactly the same as hard reset. 0 Habanero OP Tim7139 Jun 8, 2011 at 1:08 UTC Data on the disk is not too worries some.
