Hey everyone, I'm facing a puzzling problem. Every time my Windows 10 laptop boots up, it runs a chkdsk check on a specific partition. But I don't see the drive letter—it only shows the volume ID (like "\\?Volume{d9f41c52-9ec2-4bc9-8de5-7a46686f72d7}"). This happens because I recently got the latest update. It takes just a second, except when Windows asks for permission, which sometimes does. It's a bit annoying, and I'm curious about what's happening. From what I can tell, none of the partitions have those volume IDs listed. So my guesses are: 1) It might be checking the recovery partition or the system reserved partition—these are the only ones Windows doesn't return IDs for, especially on an SSD. 2) The partition it's scanning isn't actually there, which is why Windows completes quickly. I also ran chkdsk manually on all accessible partitions, and everything checked out without changes. Anyone have any suggestions?

Mountvol isn't displaying that string and it doesn't appear to work with mountvol. When I enter it in the run box explorer, it says it can't reach that volume (even though it exists). It mentions no filesystem is recognized and asks if all drivers are installed and if the drive is damaged. I also have Linux on the laptop; its system partition has a drive letter, so it's not this one, but it could be trying to scan the swap partition I was thinking about. I completely overlooked that. The strange part now is that the registry value is already set to ignore scanning.
