NAME
     ntfsfix - fix common errors and force  operating  system  to
     check NTFS

SYNOPSIS
     ntfsfix [options] device


DESCRIPTION
     The ntfsfix utility fixes some common  NTFS  problems.  Note
     that  it  is not a version of chkdsk. It repairs some funda-
     mental NTFS inconsistencies, resets the NTFS  journal  file,
     and  schedules an NTFS consistency check for the next reboot
     of the operating system.


     Run ntfsfix on an NTFS volume if you think it was damaged by
     the  operating  system or in some other way and it cannot be
     mounted.
