Unable to write $Mft.


Recommended Posts

I woke my PC from Hibernation to find a warning that my PC was unable to

write E:\$Mft.

 

E drive is my USB data drive.

 

Anything I should be doing about this?

If System Restore is enabled on the E:\ drive suggest it be turned off.

*Right* click My Computer either on the Desktop or the Start Menu and

choose Properties.

Click the System Restore tab

Click on the E:\ drive to highlight it and then click the Settings button.

Put a check mark in the box next to Turn off system restore ...
