| | Correct behavior? Gentlemen, if I may.... In Administrative Tools\Disk Manager\Drive Properties\Tools\Error Checking\Check Now, the Automatic repair for files...etc is ALWAYS check ON and not by user input. Unchecking and closing follow by reopening shows it again to be check on. Does this have anything to do with Vista SP1 chkntfs.exe default (/D) being "look always for a dirty drive and run chkdsk.exe if so"? Thanks. -- Dr. Rolando E Creagh Perfection can be the enemy of good |

| | Re: Correct behavior? Thanks Mr. Brink for the return Followed your instructions and the registry entry is exactly as you said. So I assume it is the default, thus correct?

| | Re: Correct behavior? Ok, followed your instruction. Is the check mark in Drive Properties\Tools\Repair files suppose to disappear? It is still there. Would this be considered otherwise as "a pending command, if"?
