Rehan. did you use full chkdsk ? under drive, right click menu, properties ?

where did you find this 13 percent value ?

use your hdd manufacturer's tool to check the condition properly.

also there is crystaldiskinfi,hddscan etc. they will give you a better idea. check the SMART information and find the measure which are showing imminent failure or bad health.


edit. if it is really near failure, you cant do much except copying the data to a backup drive or online. you can not just increase health. it is not a mmorpg character. hehe

Can you please download CrystalDiskInfo and make screenshots of the disk health information for the affected disk? 13% disk health value is really bad. You should get a new drive and backup everything from the old one as quick as you can if it really is in such a bad state.

@Rehan AFAIK you can't increase your HDD health if it's a HARDWARE failure as we know HDD also has a lifespan that is why it has an warranty. How old is your HDD btw? If it's SOFTWARE issue you may use CHECKDISK and some other software tools to fix your HDD internally.

I recommend using HDDlife, because the features of the HDD Health Monitor and Advanced System Check make your HDD last longer, and if you are traveling again and you forget to turn off your computer HDDlife will help you monitor your HDD and send the results via the network
And I Think Again This Software Is Paid

The health is hardware problem . The only way to fix is to buy new hard drive and backup all your data to the new hard drive

Your data is at risk when stored in low health hard drive . they can dead at any time and your data is gone

Thanks all of you.I don't think this problem is solve able.Today after reading replies i downloaded the HDDLife tool and that shows that my hard drive health is at 0% .I shall try to move my data to a new one as soon as possible.
btw i am wondering how the hell this is too much low while most of the hard drives always have 100%.

did you check the SMART report? i would like a screenshot of those pages if you are looking for further elaboration. it just helps understand whst is going wrong. im sure your testing suite is seeing some stats on that SMART checklist over the threshold required for normal activity. sometimes it happens pretty fast for a nee hdd due to some manufacturing defect or something similar.

Reading through this... makes me so sad. The thing I hate is when people try to help but OP is absolutely ignoring them. I see multiple people asking for SMART results from CystalMarkInfo and other software. Yet the OP thinks it is of absolutely no importance to post them in order to get help. Why did you even ask for help??? Stop it if you can't deal with people trying to help you. You are wasting peoples time.

Check with S.M.A.R.T, they provide a good marginal info about your disks health. I recommend crystaldiskinfo.
