MORE INFORMATION
; SCANDISK.INI ; ; This file contains settings you can use to customize the ScanDisk ; program. ; ------------------------------------------------------------------- ; The [ENVIRONMENT] section contains the following settings, which ; determine general aspects of ScanDisk's behavior: ; ; Display Configures ScanDisk to run with a particular type of ; display. The default display type is Auto (ScanDisk ; adjusts to the current display). ; ; Mouse Enables or disables mouse support. The default value is ; On. ; ; ScanTimeOut Determines whether ScanDisk should detect disk timeouts ; while performing a surface scan. The default value is Off. ; ; NumPasses Determines how many times ScanDisk should check each ; cluster during a surface scan. The default value is 1. ; ; LabelCheck Determines whether ScanDisk should check volume labels ; for invalid characters. The default is Off. [ENVIRONMENT] Display = Auto ; Auto, Mono, Color, Off Mouse = On ; On, Off ScanTimeOut = Off ; On, Off NumPasses = 1 ; 1 through 65,535 (anything over 10 is slow) LabelCheck = Off ; On, Off ; ------------------------------------------------------------------- ; The [CUSTOM] section determines ScanDisk's behavior when ScanDisk is ; started with the /CUSTOM switch. You can adjust these settings to ; create a customized "version" of ScanDisk. This can be especially ; useful for running ScanDisk from a batch file. The [CUSTOM] settings ; are: ; ; DriveSummary Determines whether ScanDisk displays full-screen ; summary information after checking each drive. ; The default is Auto (ScanDisk displays the summary ; only if it encounters errors on that drive). ; ; AllSummary Determines whether ScanDisk displays full-screen ; summary information after checking all drives. ; The default is Auto (ScanDisk displays the summary ; only if it encounters errors on any drive). ; ; Surface Determines whether ScanDisk will perform a surface scan: ; Never (Default) Does not perform a surface scan. ; Always Performs a surface scan without prompting ; first. ; Prompt Prompts before performing a surface scan. ; The /SURFACE command-line switch overrides this setting. ; ; CheckHost Determines whether ScanDisk will first check a host drive ; before checking any compressed drives located on that ; drive. ; Never (Default) Does not check the host drive. ; Always Checks the host drive without prompting ; first. ; Prompt Prompts before checking the host drive. ; ; SaveLog Determines what ScanDisk does with the repair log file: ; Off (Default) Does not save the repair log. ; Append Appends the log to the previous log, if ; any. ; Overwrite Replaces the previous log with the new log. ; ; Undo Determines whether ScanDisk creates an Undo floppy disk. ; The default is Never (ScanDisk does not create an Undo ; disk). The Prompt value causes ScanDisk to prompt you for ; a disk. [CUSTOM] DriveSummary = Auto ; Auto, On, Off AllSummary = Auto ; Auto, On, Off Surface = Never ; Never, Always, Prompt CheckHost = Never ; Never, Always, Prompt SaveLog = Off ; Off, Append, Overwrite Undo = Prompt ; Prompt, Never ; The following settings determine the corrective action ScanDisk will ; take if it was started with the /CUSTOM switch and finds a disk error. ; The next five settings accept any of the following values: ; Prompt Causes ScanDisk to prompt you before fixing this problem. ; Fix Causes ScanDisk to fix the problem without prompting you. ; Quit Causes ScanDisk to terminate if it encounters this ; problem. DS_Header = Prompt ; Damaged DoubleSpace volume file header FAT_Media = Prompt ; Missing or invalid FAT media byte Okay_Entries = Prompt ; Damaged, but repairable, ; directories/files Bad_Chain = Prompt ; Files or directories which should be ; truncated Crosslinks = Prompt ; FAT-level crosslinks ; The next seven settings accept any of the following values: ; Prompt Causes ScanDisk to prompt you before fixing this problem. ; Fix Causes ScanDisk to fix the problem without prompting you. ; Quit Causes ScanDisk to terminate if it encounters this ; problem. ; Skip Causes ScanDisk to skip fixing this problem, but continue ; checking the disk. Boot_Sector = Prompt ; Damaged boot sector on DoubleSpace ; drive Invalid_MDFAT = Prompt ; Invalid MDFAT entries DS_Crosslinks = Prompt ; Internal (MDFAT-level) crosslinks DS_LostClust = Prompt ; Internal lost clusters DS_Signatures = Prompt ; Missing DoubleSpace volume signatures Mismatch_FAT = Prompt ; Mismatched FATs on non-DoubleSpace ; drives Bad_Clusters = Prompt ; Physical damage or decompression errors ; The next setting accepts any of the following values: ; ; Prompt Causes ScanDisk to prompt you before fixing this problem. ; Delete Causes ScanDisk to delete the damaged directory entries ; without prompting you first. ; Quit Causes ScanDisk to terminate if it encounters this ; problem. Bad_Entries = Prompt ; Damaged and irrepairable directories or ; files ; The next setting accepts any of the following values: ; ; Prompt Causes ScanDisk to prompt you before fixing this problem. ; Save Causes ScanDisk to save the lost clusters as files in the ; root directory without prompting you first. ; Delete Causes ScanDisk to delete the contents of the lost ; clusters ; without prompting you first. ; Quit Causes ScanDisk to terminate if it encounters this ; problem. ; Skip Causes ScanDisk to skip fixing this problem, but continue ; checking the disk. LostClust = Prompt ; Lost clusters
