Accessing a particular location in Windows 10 throws an error message that a drive has been corrupted and needs to be fixed via restarting with chkdsk. A fix is not available in Windows 10 20H2.
Last month, it was revealed that Windows 10 contains a weird bug in which the OS throws an error message that the drive is corrupted and that you should reboot the system, when a certain location is accessed via the Command Prompt or a browser. While Microsoft appears to have quietly fixed the issue in the latest Insider Preview build 21322, it still appears to be present in other versions of Windows 10. Bleeping Computer reports that when you run the change directory „cd“ command on the Command Prompt with a specific location, Windows warns that „The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable“, recommending that you reboot the machine with chkdsk to fix the drive. This happens even when users with low privileges access the NTFS volume.
