I finally got the scan to run completely through, with some sighted help and found the log. I wouldn't say this is very accessible. It started of with saying it was initializing 1 percent complete through initializing 100 percent. I tabbed around and located some dialogue that said it was evaluating the hard drive. My sighted help said there was something up in the corner of the screen whirling around. I left it to have breakfast and when I returned there was no sign of anything going on. I went to the windows log per Mario's instructions and found the log it had created and opened it in Note Pad. I started Jaws reading and after an hour and a half it was still reading so I skipped to the bottom of the file, then backed up a couple of pages and started reading again. Result! Don't know any more than I did before I ran the scan, The log was mostly numbers. Saw one "destroyed", Many "failed" and "not applicable", and various other phrases. Most of the report would be decipherable only to the programmer who wrote the scan program or someone who had access to his documentation for the program. Tom

well then, I don't know because that is the path/filename that is displayed
when the scan finishes. my nephew helped me with a scan and told me where
the log is located. maybe someone else has a suggestion.

I ran the error scan: "sfc /scannow" . I did not get a status report at the
completion  of the scan however. Might it have created a log somewhere?  Tom
