1. Will using the Chkdsk recovery console delete my files?(in other words, is it like reformatting)
2. Do I need the "reformat" disk to use Chkdsk recovery console?
3. What can the Chkdsk recovery console fix?
4. What does Chkdsk /r do?
Sorry for any grammar/spelling errors, I used my iPod Touch to write this.

It could take considerable time
Best to let it finish
In the beginning there was the command line.
