check for corrupted files

Name: Anonymous 2006-02-11 6:09

Other than chkdsk, What program can interactively check if NTFS files are corrupted (either written corrupt files or files which became corrupted after their original write)

If such a program exists, does it need to first checksum every file on the drive to have a "known-good" reference table?

Does NTFS keep checksum information for every file by default?

Is there a way to check files for corruption without knowing their original checksum?

so how can ntfs disks be checked in windows for file integrity against corruption incase the hardware slowly begins to fail

someone must have made a program to do it

reading every file to verify them is fine, it would only be necessary ondemand when you want to recover files off the drive etc

i wrote a script to sfv files when they are written to a storage directory, storage files rarely get changed, system files do change a lot though
