Q: I recently formatted the Windows Operating System on my PC.
Now, when I boot Windows 98, my screen displays messages of errors in various folders. It says such folders will be converted to the ‘FILE00.CHK’ for later use.
There were three folders and they were converted to a number of ‘FILE*.CKK’ files of different sizes. How can I get back those folders?
I had run a recovery tool but it did not display these folder names. Please suggest a solution.
A: File*.chk files are scraps discovered and recovered by scandisk in Windows 98.
When a machine doesn’t close down properly, some files get lost and the machine saves these files as file000.chk files and these are numbered 0001, 0002, etc.
If you have not lost any data, all these chk files can be deleted. But if you have lost data, you will want to examine the chk files to see if the data you want is in there. You can try to open them with Notepad to get basic information.
To recover data in ck files, you can try the following utilities.
UnCHK – HTTP://WWW.ERICPHELPS.COM/uncheck/unchk3.zip
FileCHK – http://www.ericphelps.com/uncheck/FileCHK.ZIP
