i was trying to create a script to Run CHKDSK on a system and avoid all prompts

Below is what I have sofar which doiesn't work. Also if  I could get it to work it would still require the  "Y" when the prompt comes up saying that it cannot chkdsk this drive because it is in use, do you want to run chkdsk during the next restart. Anyone have any ideas?

c:

cd \temp\vncscan

CHKDSK C: /r > C:\CHKDSK.txt

chkdsk requires exclusive access to the volume that is being checked, so no files can be opened on that volume.  Since your system drive always has files open as long as Windows is running, there is no way to check it without rebooting.

That is correct.  If you take away the " > C:\CHKDSK.txt", you will be prompted to that effect.

Thank you,

But is there a way to have it not prompt and either just reboot automatically or run the next time it boots?

You could try an:

echo y|chkdsk c: /r
