Disk Error Checking via context menu incorrectly indicates disk error

#1 Post by JohnnyHighhair » 13.03.2023, 23:07

Disk Error Checking via FreeCommander context menu incorrectly indicates a disk error.

Steps to produce the issue:
1. Right-click on C: drive on FreeCommander (public) (FreeCommander XE 2023 Build 880 32-bit public)
2. Select context menu
3. Select Properties
4. Click on [Check] button
5. Select "Scan drive"
6. It immediately comes up with the following dialog box...

[Window Title]
Error Checking (Local Disk (C:))

[Main Instruction]
Repair this drive

[Content]
Windows found errors on this drive that need to be repaired. Close this dialog box, and then repair the drive.

[Close]

7. If you click on Show Details, Event Viewer does not show any details.

Importantly, if you repeat the same steps directly using Windows Explorer then Windows will proceed with checking the drive and report that there are no errors.
Running CHKDSK via command prompt confirms that there are no disk errors.

I have the same issue on two computers using the same version (FreeCommander XE 2023 Build 880 32-bit public)

This works fine if you use the x64 FC version in an X64 OS.
I assume you have given the proper answer to the UAC request.
Windows 11 Home x64 Version 22H2 (OS Build 22621.1413)
Everything Version 1.5.0.1340a (x64)
FreeCommander XE 2022 Build 885 64-bit donor
