Cannot open volume for direct access?

OK so I have windows vista 32-bit home... and I installed this program from avg that solves all the problems on the computer... Well now when I boot, I get a cannot open volume for direct access... and I loaded my computer finally and its telling me everything is corrupted?

Hello

I'm sorry but most of the posters, which I am part, who come here do not believe in using Tuneup Utilities, registry cleaners, etc. to improve performance or solve problems.

They are completely unnecessary.

Do a Safe Mode system restore to before the problem started.

How to access Safe Mode

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Or, if you don't have one, borrow a DVD of Microsoft Vista, not a recovery disk and you could do a upgrade in repair facility.

And I have contacted AVG or their Forums as you say it was their program that caused the problems.

    Hi EddieLopezA,

    ·         Which version of Windows Vista is installed on your computer?

    ·         You have antivirus software on your computer?

    This problem may occur if another utility or service, for example a virus check program or a program disk monitoring, locked the partition before you try to run the Chkdsk.exe or Autochk.exe utility.

    I have some steps that may help you.

    Method 1: I suggest you to turn off all third-party applications and check if you have a similar question.

    To do this, follow these steps:

    1. open the start search box, type services.msc and click OK.

    2. in the Services (Local) list scroll the service concerned (for example auditor of virus or disk monitoring tool).

    3. right click on the service and select Properties.

    4. change the startup type to disabled for all applications 3rd - party that could be the cause of the blocking of Chkdsk problem.

    5. click OK/apply.

    6. restart the computer.

    Method 2: If this does not help, try to change the registry value and restart the computer.

    1. click on the start search box, type regedit.

    2. in the Publisher of the registry under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE subtree, go to the following subkey:

    \SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session manager

    3 change the Boot entry run of:

    autocheck autochk * /r\DosDevice\C: (or other)

    TO:

    autocheck autochk *.

    Note: Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk.  If you want to edit the registry to fix this I urge you to back up your registry before proceeding.

  • Error: "cannot open Volume for Direct access" is displayed when Chkdsk runs at startup

    Original title: Edit/Fix key in my registry

    CHKDSK keeps trying to run during startup, but "cannot open volume...". "If I can solve this problem, I want to put it in the manual, not automatic.      My registry key: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\rchelp is missing.   Can I remedy this by creating a text file with an REG extension and if so, where can I find the exact measurements to do?  It is the DOS Cmd or in Notepad?

    Hi BarneyBear,

    1 did you allow that chkdsk runs successfully at the start of the system?

    Editing registry is not necessary here. We recommend you to check if the disk check is scheduled.

    This problem can be solved by installing the latest service pack Windows XP.
    See the error message "Impossible open Volume for Direct access" When Chkdsk runs at startup

  • Checking file system on C: the type of the file system is NTFS. Cannot open volume for direct access. Windows has finished checking the disk.

    I tried to insert the installation disc, and it relies on the error message that it does not give me an option of chkdsk, or anything else.  When I start from safe mode, the computer hangs on the screen "loading Windows files". Is there something I can do?

    Hello Mitcherator777,

    You can connect to your computer in normal mode or only in safe mode?

    It would be the best way to run the Chkdsk command:

    1 disable any security software before you attempt to upgrade or do a clean install.
    2. make sure that your computer is updated (devices and applications)
    3. disconnect all external devices before installing.
    4. check your hard disk for errors:
    Click Start
    Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD
    Click on "Run as Administrator"
    At the command prompt, type: chkdsk /f /r
    When you restart your system, your computer will be scanned for errors and will try to correct them.

    Let us know the status of your question.

    Thank you

    Marilyn,

    This problem has been resolved, I contacted Microsoft directly on the phone in the time of September.
    Question has proved to be a dirty disc. as my 1 year limited manufacturer expired warranty, I have since last week bought a new HDD to solve this problem.
    Please examine this issue.
    Thank you.

  • Cannot open a temporary file Access Denied

    I use Windows 7 64-bit. In recent weeks I have had problems to open some files downloaded from the internet. Here are the standard files from known reputable sources. The most recent is Firefox setup 28.0.exe. (I thought that my browser Chrome could be the cause of the penalty)

    Others are fdminst.exe, Virtualbox - 43.4 - 91207win.exe and Avast-browser - cleanup.exe.

    I click and get the usual message run or save. I click on Run and get the error message '' Cannot open File C:\stuart\appdata\local\temp\filename .tmp'. The message has sometimes 7Zip under the title name. I have never use 7Zip and that you have not installed it. The error messages vary a little - even for two attempts in the same file. But are always on the same sometimes with Access Denied.

    There are no other users.

    I have a virus? I use AVG and also periodically Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, but they found nothing.

    Finally, I downloaded other files and opened without any difficultyy.

    Can anyone help?

    Being that the usual 'temp' directory is different for each user, a possible workaround solution would be for you to create another user on a computer that has administrative privileges.  Then log out of your normal user account and connect you to your computer as the new user and try to do some of your facilities while connected as the new user to the administrator.  It * must * use a brand-new directory clean 'temp' to proceed with the installation.  I hope that it will work.

    Another thing: on my computer, there is a folder "C:\Windows\Temp".  It is possible that this is the directory that he tries to use instead of the usual user profile temp directory.  If you have this folder, you can click on it-> properties-> Security (tab) and check that 'Administrators' have full access to this directory.
