    LENOVO laptop Disable windows detected a hard disk problem


    ok so im dealing with a laptop and uppon buying a hard drive and putting it in and installing windows i get this annoying windows detected a hard disk problem popup each boot.

    i know what it means but im not buying another HDD just got this today

    i need a way to hide the error and please dont say

    “Task Scheduler Library” => “Microsoft” => “Windows”. => “DiskDiagnostic” or anything to do with gpedit because this is windows 7 home basic and does not have those options

    also i force install the gpedit and it does not have a DiskDiagnostic tab. so i need another way around this

    windows is acting 100% fine a i believe its a false positive to i choose to ignore the error.

    Well i found nothing to fix this issue so i killed it from the root. found the .exe that is responsible for the prompt "DFDWiz.exe" & "DFDWiz.exe.mui" and renamed it and prompt gone. had to go thought such extreme measures but hey it worked.

    for anyone also looking on how to remove the message

    i took permission of the whole system32, right click system32 folder with the take ownership.reg (provided below) then look for the 2 files "DFDWiz.exe" & "DFDWiz.exe.mui" and rename them to something like Old-DFDWiz.exe & Old-DFDWiz.exe.mui

    then reboot. Done
