CHKDSK runs on startup

Hello,

For some reason, my PC has decided to run CHKDSK everytime it starts up. When I let it complete the process, it finds no errors and proceeds to startup normally.

How can I prevent it from running CHKDSK at every startup?

thanks,

Open up command prompt and type this command: "CHKNTFS /X C:" (without the quotes).
