    If you want to stop it, open an elevated Command Prompt and run this command

    chkntfs /x C:

    This assumes that the ptoblem is on the C disk. You can add more disks e.g. (space) D: F: etc.

    There may be software errors after you reinstalled your programs. Open an elevated command prompt as in this tutorial. Elevated Command Prompt type SFC /SCANNOW and press enter. It will take some time to run.
