Analyzing and fixing hard drive issues
Sure, I also tried running it with admin privileges earlier but the problem persists and it keeps saying "scanning and repair."
It's because you can't execute scandisk on the system drive inside Windows. This is why you see a checkdisk warning at startup. You can boot into repair mode, open Command Prompt as an administrator, and enter the admin password. You'll need to type 'checkdsk c:' to start it manually. It might mean your disk has a problem, which is why the automatic method fails.
