Problem Performance
The cause of the "file or directory corruption and unreadable" problem may be caused by abnormal plugging and symptoms:
- The file or directory is corrupted and cannot be read.
- The disk property is in raw format and the capacity is 0.
Solution
There is a disk repair command under DOS -- chkdsk, which can be used to repair the "primary file index table" (MFT ):
Format: chkdsk X:/F
X: damaged drive letter
/F: The parameter indicates that disk errors are fixed.
For more parameter descriptions and operation instructions, run chkdsk /?
Prompt displayed after running
C: \ Documents ents and Settings \ Administrator> chkdsk X:/F
The file system type is NTFS.
Chkdsk is verifying the file (phase 1 of 3 )...
256 file records have been processed.

Fixing the error of the master file table (MFT) image.
Chkdsk found that the bitmap of the main file table (MFT) is marked
Allocated space.
The volume bitmap error is being fixed.
Windows has corrected the file system.
This is a big success, and data is not lost. I hope it will be useful to you.
