It would be a cluster-chkdsk.

Get with the times!

That's a cluster-scandisk these days.

Actually it's chkdsk. Unless I'm mistaken, Windows NT and its successors have always used chkdsk, whereas scandisk first showed up in MSDOS 6 (or maybe 5), and hasn't been used since Windows Millenium Edition (the last non-NT Windows).

Get with the times!

scandisk was first available in MS-DOS 6.2, IIRC.

Get with the times!
