Every time Windows restarts, Autochk.exe is called by the Kernel to scan
all volumes to check if the volume dirty bit is set. If the dirty bit is
set, autochk performs an immediate chkdsk /f on that volume. CHKDSK /f
verifies file system integrity and attempts to fix any problems with the
volume.

unschedule a chkdsk if chkdsk /f was used to schedule a chkdsk on an active
volume on the next system restart.
