Can you please tell me if Microsoft recommends Scandisk or
Error-Checking as often as we did with previous versions?
We teach many classes on PC Maintenance to seniors here in
AZ and with it being removed from tools, the question
arises as to whether or not it is practical or necessary.
Any comments would be appreciated! Any tech articles
would really be great!
