CHKDSK或检查磁盘(Check Disk)是内置于Windows操作系统中的实用程序，用于维护连接到计算机的磁盘的完整性。它既可以通过图形用户界面(Graphical User Interface)启动，也可以通过命令(Command)行启动。有许多情况可能需要运行此实用程序。主要因素是磁盘的可读性。一些用户报告说，当通过命令行启动实用程序时，他们会收到无法打开卷以直接访问(Cannot open volume for direct access)该实用程序的错误。
当想要在分区上运行Chkdsk命令时，他或她会收到以下错误消息：-
C:\WINDOWS\system32>chkdsk /f g:
Cannot open volume for direct access.
C:\WINDOWS\system32>chkdsk /f f:
The type of the file system is NTFS. Volume label is 0529357401.
CHKDSK无法打开卷以进行直接访问
/f执行 chkdsk 命令时，它会发现并修复错误。如果有任何东西阻止它修复，您将收到此错误消息。这些建议将帮助您解决问题。但在您进一步阅读之前，请重新启动您的 PC 并尝试一次，看看它是否有帮助。
如果CHKDSK无法打开卷以进行直接访问，请按照以下步骤操作：
- 在引导时运行 CHKDSK。
- 运行主硬盘自检。
- 使用(Use)免费的ChkDsk替代软件
- 检查硬盘驱动器的健康状况。
- 禁用对硬盘驱动器的各种限制。
- 卸载/禁用驱动器锁定功能(Drive Locking Feature)。
- 禁用应用程序服务。
- 使用 Repair-Volume(Use Repair-Volume) for Windows Powershell。
首先通读整篇文章，然后决定这些建议中的哪一个或多个可能适用于您的案例。
1] 在引导时运行 CHKDSK
首先，将您的计算机启动到安全模式(boot your computer to Safe Mode)。
(Open Command Prompt)以管理员身份(Admin)打开命令提示符命令行并执行以下命令：
chkdsk /x /f /r
让您的计算机正常重新启动，它将在Startup上运行(Startup)CHKDSK。
2]运行主硬盘自检
将您的计算机引导至BIOS。
在 诊断选项卡下， (Diagnostics, )选择 主硬盘自检选项。 (Primary Hard Disk Self Test. )在不同制造商的不同主板上，它可能会有所不同，但意味着相同。
让测试完成并正常启动您的计算机。
这应该可以修复所有错误，因为在BIOS中已经解决了磁盘中的任何阻塞。
3]使用(Use)免费的ChkDsk替代软件
您可以考虑使用一些工具作为ChkDsk的替代品。它们同样方便，并且做得很好。您可以使用免费的ChkDsk 替代软件(ChkDsk alternative software)或Puran Utilities并检查是否对您有帮助。
4]检查硬盘的健康状况
使用 Windows 命令提示符中的 WMIC 实用程序(hard drive’s health using the WMIC utility in Windows Command Prompt)检查硬盘驱动器的运行状况，并检查您的硬盘驱动器是否存在导致 无法打开卷以进行直接访问 (Cannot open volume for direct access )错误的任何问题。如果您的硬盘有一些内部问题，您可能会不断遇到此问题。
5 ]禁用(] Disable)对硬盘的各种限制
Windows 11/10 允许您针对不同目的设置各种限制。如果您的硬盘驱动器已加密或限制执行操作，您可以尝试禁用 BitLocker 加密，这应该可以解决您的问题。当您阻止硬盘驱动器执行常规操作时，您可能会遇到此问题。
6] Uninstall/Disable Drive Locking Feature
在导致问题的软件中，查找跟踪磁盘更改的任何功能。如果您的硬盘驱动器被某些第三方软件锁定，则可能无法完成扫描。因此，我建议您禁用该功能，然后执行检查磁盘命令。
7]禁用应用程序服务(7] Disable application Service)
第二种方法是禁用服务(Service)。这样(Doing)做将完全禁用该软件，以及它为保护您的系统所做的任何事情。
- (Type)在RUN提示符下(RUN)键入services.msc，然后按 Enter。
- 滚动查找与安全软件或磁盘检查器软件相关的相应服务。
- 右键，单击该特定服务并选择属性。
- 将启动类型更改为已禁用
- 单击确定/应用。
- 重新启动计算机。
确保(Make)在磁盘检查完成后重新启用该服务。
7]为Windows Powershell使用Repair-Volume(7] Use Repair-Volume for Windows Powershell)
以管理员身份打开Windows PowerShell(Windows PowerShell as Administrator)
键入以下命令以运行Repair-Volume ，然后按 Enter。
repair-volume -drive letter <DRIVE LETTER>
让该过程完成并检查扫描和修复问题是否已修复。
无法打开卷以进行直接访问是什么意思？
当您在Windows 11/10ChkDsk命令来修复硬盘时，该实用程序未检测到它，它会显示错误消息。换句话说，当命令行实用程序未检测或识别您的硬盘驱动器时，会发生此错误。
您如何解决由于Windows无法访问磁盘而无法执行磁盘检查的问题？
除了运行常规的ChkDsk(ChkDsk)命令之外，您还可以做几件事。例如，您可以在启动时运行相同的程序，运行主(Primary)硬盘自检(Disk Self Test)，删除加密等。由于此问题与本文中提到的问题非常相似，您可以在您的计算机上执行相同的解决方案。
chkdsk R 和 F 哪个更好？
虽然它与 chkdsk 命令有关，但并不比另一个好。那是因为您可以在不同的时间出于不同的目的执行这些命令。当文件系统出现小问题时使用CHKDSK /F ，而当数据的物理状况出现问题时使用CHKDSK /R。(CHKDSK)
All the best!
Fix CHKDSK cannot open volume for direct access
CHKDSK or Check Disk is a utility built inside the Windows operating systems that work to maintain the integrity of the disk connected to a computer. It can be launched both via Graphical User Interface as well as via Command line. There are many scenarios that may warrant the running of this utility. The main factor is the readability of the disk. Some users have been reporting that they receive Cannot open volume for direct access error for the utility when launched via the command line.
When one wants to run the Chkdsk command on a partition, he or she gets the following error messages:-
C:\WINDOWS\system32>chkdsk /f g:
Cannot open volume for direct access.
C:\WINDOWS\system32>chkdsk /f f:
The type of the file system is NTFS. Volume label is 0529357401.
CHKDSK cannot open volume for direct access
When you execute the chkdsk command with option /f, it will find and repairs errors. If anything blocks it from repairing, you will receive this error message. These suggestions will help you fix the problem. But before you read further, restart your PC and try once and see if it helps.
If CHKDSK cannot open volume for direct access, follow these steps:
- Run CHKDSK at Boot time.
- Run Primary Hard Disk Self Test.
- Use free ChkDsk alternative software
- Check hard drive’s health.
- Disable various restrictions on the hard drive.
- Uninstall/Disable Drive Locking Feature.
- Disable application service.
- Use Repair-Volume for Windows Powershell.
Go through the entire post first and then decide which one or more of these suggestions may apply in your case.
1] Run CHKDSK at Boot time
First of all, boot your computer to Safe Mode.
Open Command Prompt command line as an Admin and execute the following command:
chkdsk /x /f /r
Have your computer rebooted normally and it will run CHKDSK on Startup.
2] Run Primary Hard Disk Self Test
Boot your computer to the BIOS.
Under the tab of Diagnostics, select the option that says Primary Hard Disk Self Test. On different motherboards by different manufacturers, it might differ but would imply the same.
Let the test complete and boot your computer normally.
This should fix all the errors as any blockage in the disk would be solved already while in BIOS.
3] Use free ChkDsk alternative software
There are a few tools that you can consider as the ChkDsk alternative. They are equally handy and do the job pretty well. You can make use of the free ChkDsk alternative software or Puran Utilities and check if that helps you.
4] Check hard drive’s health
Check the status of hard drive’s health using the WMIC utility in Windows Command Prompt and check if your hard drive has any issues resulting in the Cannot open volume for direct access error. If your hard disk has some internal issues, you might get this problem continuously.
5] Disable various restrictions on the hard drive
Windows 11/10 lets you set various restrictions for different purposes. If your hard drive is encrypted or restricted to be performed operations on, you can try to disable the BitLocker encryption, and that should fix your issues. When you prevent your hard drive from doing something usual, you might come across to this problem.
6] Uninstall/Disable Drive Locking Feature
In the software that is causing the problem, look for any feature which tracks disk changes. If your hard drive is locked with some third-party software, the scan might not be completed. Therefore, I would suggest you disable that feature, and then perform the check disk command.
7] Disable application Service
The second way is to disable the Service. Doing so will altogether disable the software, anything it does to protect your system.
- Type services.msc in the RUN prompt and hit enter.
- Scroll to find the respective service related to the security software or disk checker software.
- Right, click on that particular service and select Properties.
- Change the Startup type to Disabled
- Click OK/Apply.
- Reboot your computer.
Make sure to enable the service back when the disk check is complete.
7] Use Repair-Volume for Windows Powershell
Open Windows PowerShell as Administrator
Type in the following command to run Repair-Volume and then hit Enter.
repair-volume -drive letter <DRIVE LETTER>
Let the process complete and check if the Scanning & repairing issue is fixed or not.
What does Cannot open volume for direct access mean?
When you run the ChkDsk command in Windows 11/10 to repair your hard disk, but the utility doesn’t detect it, it shows the error message. In other words, this error occurs when the command line utility doesn’t detect or recognize your hard drive.
How do you fix the disk check could not be performed because Windows Cannot access the disk?
There are several things you can do instead of running the regular ChkDsk command. For example, you can run the same at boot time, run Primary hard Disk Self Test, remove encryption, etc. As this problem is quite similar to the issue mentioned in this article, you can perform the same solutions on your computer.
Which is better chkdsk R or F?
While it is about the chkdsk command, one is not better than another. That is because you can execute these commands at different times for different purposes. The CHKDSK /F is used when there is a minor issue with the file system, whereas CHKDSK /R is used when there is some problem with the physical condition of the data.
All the best!
