>>60653030
something related to windows is shit?

no surprise there.

what are you actually trying to do when you say 'repair a disk'
>>
>>60653055
Corrupted/bad sectors
>>
>>60653030
What kind of repair?
For filesystem issues you can use chkdsk /f
For physical disk error you can do only as much, like remapping bad sector or just backup files in case the disk is un salvageable
>>
>>60653072
That's physical damage, backup with external utility like recuva or power data recovery and trash it. Post smart data
>>
>>60653072
if the sectors are corrupted or bad, then your hosed. you need to salvage all data possible and replace the drive.

no amount of software is going to fix a hardware issue

Can I clone the HD?
Just the windows partition?
>>
>>60653263
yes, quite easily.

boot up into a linux environment using a liveboot usb or cd.

locate which device is your corrupted hard drive and use dd to copy the clone the disk

<code>
sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb status=progress
</code>

the above command will clone all data from disk sda onto disk sdb
>>
>>60653343
Ok thanks
>>
>>60653374
this makes a bit by bit clone of the device. ensure that the device you are copying to does not have any data on it you want preserved, because it will be overwriten
>>
fsck
>>
>>60653374
Just to warn you, if you boot from a USB sda will be a usb and sdb will be the Disk.
Use Gparted or Gnome-Disks to find out which Drive is which
>>
fsck

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
