Hello @RPD2,
Please go through this article : https://www.maketecheasier.com/cancel-scheduled-chkdsk-operations-windows/
Jusy to make sure I personally recommend and run the Harddrive Test in BIOS by tapping F10 at the start and check if the Hard Drive is OK.
Hope this helps, for any further queries reply to the post and feel free to join us again !!

Hi,
Usually it can be cancelled by pressing any key in the first second or so after notification.
Now if you let it run and repair all errors it can take a very long time. However afterwards at next boot it should not start up again. If you do not let the check run it will ask again at every startup.
You can exclude the disk from being checked even after it has been marked to be checked at next startup by Windows.
Open Command Prompt as Administrator (right-click on start and click on command prompr administrator) Now type:
chkntfs /x c: (if you have c drive to exlude, to include other drives hust typr the drive letter after a space followed by :.)
Hope it helps,
David
