SYMPTOMS
The Repair Disk Utility may return the following errors:
-or-
When you run RDISK with the -s parameter, no errors are displayed on the computer screen or entered into the event log. The Create Emergency Repair Disk option is not displayed, and the progress bar may be updated much faster than normal, (For example, in two seconds instead of one minute).
CAUSE
Possible causes of these errors include:
- Insufficient access permissions to the %SystemRoot%\repair directory (you should have at least change permission: read, write, change, delete).
- The file %SystemRoot%\Profiles\Default User\Ntuser.dat is inaccessible.
- The drive containing the directory %SystemRoot%\repair lacks free space to hold the configuration files.
