- /F : Fixes errors on the volume (without /F , chkdsk only detects errors)
- /P : Forces a full verification
- /R : Searches for defective sectors and recovers legible information (applies /F)
- /X : Unmounts the volume before processing if needed. (Note: Unmounting temporarily invalidates all pointers/handlers to the volume until process is completed)
