I dont believe you can do this just for the chkdsk function, but you can do it for the drive itself and just click the properties once its done. Go to My Computer, right click on the c drive icon. Click create shortcut, it will say it cant, but do you want one on your desktop, click yes. Once thats done you can drag it to your quick start menu in the toolbar for a shortcut. Then you can remove the shortcut from the desktop if you so desire. Kip
Thank you for getting back to me, but you can do this and I have stated below on how to do this for your reference, again thank you.
The easiest way to do it is create a shortcut to them.
Right click on the desktop, click "New >> ShortCut" and for the location, type -
defrag /f C:
(change C: to the drive letter that you want to use)
and for Checkdisk, simply do the same, but for the location, type -
chkdsk /f /x C:
(once again, change C: to the drive you want. If you just want to scan and not fix errors then leave off the /f /x. If you want to do a full scan of the drive, add /r )
If you want to do one for all your drives then you need to use a BAT file, just say if you wan't to do that as I have one set up for my machine (its just basically a list of command.
