chckdisk almost at every boot

I have the sam problem, and it started after installing avira antivir... is it the cause then?

I've just read this also happens to other avira users... I would like to avoid to uninstalli it for now though... I will check avira forums for now...
Anyone else has the same issue?

Yes, I see. I first would like to know if that's a known issue and if other users has the same problem. Uninstalling it, as you suggest, would eliminate the (possible) cause, not fix it. But I will eventually do it, not just yet though. That's why I asked if anyone else experiences this.
Thanks again,

Hi,
again here to say: my trick did not work. Still I have an useless chkdisk after every second boot.
Agein I can not get rid of Avira being the cooperate Antivirus. I will try anyway (if I remmber to) to switch it off manually before booting down ....... let's see ......

Oh, thanks for the update. But (how) are you sure it's Avira? (On the Avira forum they say it can't be it...)

I'm absolutelly not sure it is avira ..... it's just another test of the tons I have already done ... I am running out of ideas, and start to be fed up of chkdsks .....

No one out there has new ideas?

I will try to unsintall it and see what happens when I have time, probably tonight (I am not at home at the moment). However, that's still not a proof that Avira is the cause... is it?

Hi everybody,
I have exactly the same problem too ("waiting for background programs to close" on shutdown, chkdsk at 50-60% of the boots, no issues found by chkdsk).
I don't want to completely disable chkdsk as well...
Has someone found the proof of the relationship with Avira (I use it too), or other solutions to this issue?
(Since last week no one has any news in this thread... I wanted also to "up" this problem...)
