(Replace my example location or file with yours, of course.) Run Command Prompt, and enter the two commands corresponding to the two steps we listed above:ĬD “C:\Users\lnote\Documents\Outlook Files\” If you’re not sure where a PST file is, Where is my Outlook “PST” file located? has instructions to find it. As an example, my file is at “C:\Users\lnote\Documents\Outlook Files\Outlook.pst”. This is helpful because we know the only disk access that will happen is to read the file there’s no attempt to write to the disk.įirst, locate the file.
NUL is a special device file name that means “nothing”, so this operation copies the file to “nothing”. “CD” to the folder in which the file resides.
It’s a two-step process using Command Prompt. We’ll start by making sure the problem is actually with the file being copied, since it’s also possible the problem is with the hard disk location being copied to. We need to verify that, try to recover your file, and repair your hard drive. The fact that you see it when trying to copy a file indicates the bad spot may be within the file itself. A cyclic redundancy check, or “ CRC” error, indicates a bad spot on your hard drive.
