DESCRIPTION

13       The  ntfsfix  utility  fixes some common NTFS problems. Note that it is
14       not a version of chkdsk. It repairs some fundamental NTFS  inconsisten‐
15       cies,  resets the NTFS  journal file, and schedules an NTFS consistency
16       check for the next reboot of the operating system.
