Ok, I'll give it a shot tomorrow.
Sorry, had a late night last night and am going to crash and get up in the
morning and run to several different things, but when I land, I'll get on it and
let you know how things went. Thanks

/f Fixes errors on the disk.
/R Locates bad sectors and recovers readable
information.
If your SD card has a drive letter of E, you would type the
following in command prompt: chkdsk /f /r e:
Ok, I can find
command prompt, but it has been a long while since I have used it. You
said to type:
I totally get the chkdsk, which is to check disk but now to
understand the rest.since my drive is the E drive, I assume that I change the
/f to, /e? Then what is the /r e: for? And lastly, do I leave all
the spaces in there as you have them? Thanks for any
help.

Yes, you can. However, I haven’t seen XP in so long
that I can’t remember how to get to the command prompt. I seem to
remember that it is located under accessories. Maybe go to the start
menu, go to all programs, and I think accessories was near the bottom of the
list. Once you get to the command prompt though, you can type chkdsk
/f /r e: or whatever your card’s drive letter is, and chkdsk will try to
find and repair bad/corrupt sectors on the card. It seems to be worth
a shot anyhow.
Can I do this in
XP? Sorry but that is what is on this machine.

Good morning Kay. I had an SD card do that to me
about a month ago. My computer wouldn’t let me open it, and I
couldn’t get JAWS to read the actual volume label. I was able to get
at my documents and make the card work again with the repair functionality
of chkdsk under Windows 10. First, make sure that you know the drive
letter of your card; for example, f:. Do Windows key X, then arrow
down to Windows Power Shell Admin, or instead hit the letter A. A
command prompt will open. Type chkdsk /f /r f: and hit enter.
I don’t think it can do any harm, and it may work. It takes a while
to do its thing.
I added a couple
of .docx to the text files folder of a card that I have been using for
quite some time. Now when I try to put it in my VRTrek,I get a media
3 error. So I tried another card and all is fine with that.
So, I decided to put it back in to my computer and the disc name does not
come up on the list of drives. It just says the drive name.
When I press enter on it, I am asked if I want to reformat? Ok, if
it is corrupted is their any way to salvage what is on there? I have
a ton of notes that I really need for classes and things like that.
I have a san disc utility but I don't think that does any salvage
functions. any thoughts? I have at least 30 GB of books and
other things. Please if you have any ideas, let me
know.
