HELP: chkdsk.exe file corrupted

I ran a program the other day I was told to run once a week on here to check the virses and after I ran it, I turned off the computer and the next morning, when I turned the computer back on he rode that the chkdsk.exe file is corrupted and then today he rode that one that starts with a j is damaged... and it won't let me download anything to try to fix it so what do I do?

Have you tried the system restore and repair system recommended in my first post?  If this isn't the case, you should do it.

SFC is not finished which means that there is serious on your system corruption - if serious program cannot even fill.

CHKDSK does not work so we can identify or repair damage to the hard drive (and it seems that corruption is the reason why it will not work).

You cannot download files for diagnosis or repair efforts (have you tried in SafeMode with network start-up and pushing the F8 key repeatedly until you get the menu, and then selecting this option?).  There is a hard drive diagnostic program I want you download and run to test the hard drive.  To test your hard drive, check the manufacturer and then get the diagnostic utility of: http://www.techsupportforum.com/hardware-support/hard-drive-support/302602-hard-drive-diagnostic-utilities.html.  If she failed the test, replace it.  If she passes the test, then it's probably nothing wrong with it.  If necessary, download with another computer and transfer it to computer problem with a flash drive and then install and run it (if you can - if you can not, after return).

You have a disk for Installation of Windows Vista genuine or only a recovery of the manufacturer of the computer disk (or no disk at all, except perhaps that you could by my instructions to do the Startup Repair and perhaps even restore system - can be done from the disk)?  You have a recovery Partition on your computer with maybe an order of keyboard to activate (and do you know what this command)?  If you do not know the answers to these questions, you can contact your computer manufacturer to get the answers, because it's about the next step in troubleshooting.  If you can get your hands on a real disk Installation of Windows Vista, then that would be great because otherwise, the only option is a clean install, none of us choosing.

We are running out of options.  It seems to me that you have a problem with bad corruption on your hard drive which is the root cause of all these problems.  It's maybe fixable or you may need to replace the drive.  This is the reason for the above - listed diagnosis program check it out.

I look forward to your reply.

Good luck!

    I am looking for an exe file to play on the laundry. How to insert the exe file in dreamweaver 8 to play when the page is loaded. Very similar to a flash movie is loading. The file is created with the extension exe and I can't change it or recreate. any help is appreciated. Thank you

    In general you can not do this on anything other than an intranet. Is it
    where you work? If so, then you should investigate using

    Hi chrisgregorio,

    1. Did you the latest changes on the computer?
    2. You have a security software on the computer?

    Method 1

    It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you configure the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See section to learn more about how to clean boot.

  • Each exe file I open me gives a "corrupted file... run chkdsk', but the analysis of virus and malware are clean?

    Hello

    I'm completely puzzled here. When I started my computer today I got a notification saying one of the start-up programs exe file has been corrupted. I think that "uhoh". Then my antvirus software is dΘmarre with the same and I get the notification that I'm not running and antivirus. Then I realize counts all exe files I click gives me the error "file is corrupted... Please run chkdsk" appear in the taskbar. At this point, I am thinking virus or malware.

    Some programs still work even with the corrupted message, but every exe, whether old or newly downloaded, will give me this corrupt message. Also, when I tried to reinstall my anti-virus, he wouldn't. (I'm under Avast Internet Security Pro).

    I found myself downloading AVG free and for some reason any that exe is not being corrupt. So I at least have a running antivirus software now.

    I scanned my whole system with AVG with the latest virus definitions, and it sees no virus. I run only Malwarebytes with the latest updates... nothing there either.

    Is my computer clean? For me this seems unlikely, but there is something that is not a virus or malicious software that could cause this?

    Also, I started in safe mode, and it makes exactly the same thing. Each exe is corrupt when I open it.

    I am all of these ideas, except to the reformat.

    Thank you

    Mike

    I don't see you mention on running "chkdsk".

    Note: there is a space between 'chkdsk' and ' / '.
    The screen will say something like cannot do it now, but you want to run it on reboot. Click on 'y' as in Yes > press > window cmd of output.
     
    Restart your computer. It will take a while. DO NOT stop the machine. Just wait.
