    d96b75abb458bbf3​  For chkdsk, you can select Y [yes] and restart your computer to get it to run.  But try this command rather than the one you used:

    chkdsk /f /r c:

    Having said that, I would suggest running a repair install of Windows.  This shouldn't delete any of your data, and it's the closest you can get to a fresh install of the OS without wiping your computer.  Here's how:

    Again, this shouldn't delete anything, but if you get to step 13 and are NOT asked to keep personal files and apps, back out and start over.
