Generally, you don??™t want to change, delete, or modify files marked with this attribute??”
doing so could cause the operating system to freeze, refuse to boot, or behave erratically.

Symbolic links are essentially pointers to a physical file or folder somewhere else on the drive,
another local drive, or even a network drive. The symbolic link makes it unnecessary to track where
a file or folder exists. Instead, you focus on the data itself. A directory entry marked as a symbolic
link has no real content??”just the pointer to the actual file or folder.
PERFORMING BOOT TIME DISK CHECKS WITH THE CHKNTFS UTILITY
397
/C
Skips checking cycles within the drive folders. When a folder contains cyclical references,
damage to the files can result. Consequently, even though this switch does reduce the time to
check the drive, you want to avoid using it because ChkDsk doesn??™t thoroughly check the drive
otherwise. Use this switch only on NTFS-formatted drives.
/B
Reevaluates bad clusters on the hard drive. If the cluster is readable, ChkDsk places it back
into service. This option is only available on NTFS drives and using it also includes the
/R
command
line switch.
