Hey win32_lean_and_mean,

I hope you are doing well!

Corrupted files can appear on any file type, including Excel, Word PDF, image, and Windows system files. These errors arise when you double-click the file and try to open it or when you try to open it from within an application.

There are several reasons files can get corrupted. One common reason is the physical damage to the hard disk where the file is stored on a physical disk. Also, multiple files are allocated to the same space in memory, triggering a corrupted file error.

Below given are some ways to fix the problem,

1. Scan a Hard Drive Using Error Checking
2. Use the CHKDSK command.
3. Use the SFC /scannow command.
4. Change the file format.
5. Use file repair software.

Scan a Hard Drive Using 'Error Checking':

• Right-click on the Start button and select the file Explorer option.
• Select This PC
• Right-click on the drive on which you want to check for errors on (usually C), and select Properties.
• Select the Tools tab option at the top of the window
• Choose Check followed by Scan drive.
• You will have to Wait while Error Checking scans the selected hard drive for errors and, depending on the options you selected and what errors are found, fixes any errors.
• Follow whatever guidance is given after the scan. If errors were found on the drive, you might be asked to restart your computer. If no errors are found, you can normally use the server.

Use the CHKDSK command:

You will have to open the command prompt to run the below commands,

chkdsk c: /r

The chkdsk command is used to conduct an extensive check of the C: drive to correct any errors found on the drive.

chkdsk c: /scan /forceofflinefix

This command runs an online scan on the C: volume so that you don't have to dismount the volume to run the test, and problems are sent to a queue which will be resolved in an offline repair mode.

chkdsk c: /r /scan /perf 

The above command will fix problems on the C: drive while you're using it and will use as many system resources as allowed so that it will run as quickly as possible.

The chkdsk command is like the Scandisk command used to check a hard drive or floppy disk for errors in the Windows server.

Use the SFC /scannow command:

This command will inspect all the important Windows files on your computer, including Windows DLL files. If System File Checker finds a problem with any of the protected files, it will replace it accordingly.

• Open the command prompt with administrator rights
• Type the sfc /scannow command and press enter.
• Restart your server

Change the file format:

You can use a free file converter app or open the file with any application that automatically converts from other file formats. For example, open a corrupted Word document with a PDF app to establish a file-conversion utility.

Use file repair software:

Try a file repair utility if you are willing to fix the file and recover your information. There are paid and free tools, such as FileRepair, Repair Toolbox, or Hetman.

I hope the above fixes help you to fix the problem.
