Hi, I chose to use -chdsk F: f/x/r- route and my flash drive seems to be busy for a while now even though the command prompt has discovered some corruption files. It says 100 percent completed. Does this route take a long time to fix this way it says access is denied when i tried to click on the flash drive?
