When you schedule CHKDSK to run at the next boot, the system will prompt you to press a key to cancel the operation while CHKDSK is running. The system will display a countdown during that cancel period.
The default value is 10 seconds.
To Change this open up Regedit and locate:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\AutoChkTimeOut
You can change the value to anything from zero to 259,200 seconds (3 days). With a timeout of zero, there is no countdown and you cannot cancel the operation.
If you are a system administrator on a network who wants to ensure that no user can skip disk checking, so set the countdown to zero. Or you can play a little prank with your friend by increasing the countdown time on his computer.
