Why is it that when I try to run error check/disk check on the local drive, c:, I get an error saying "Exclusive access to the drive can not be obtained. Do I want to schedule it for the next time I restart the computer". It runs just fine on the next boot if I say yes. Why can't it check when I say check now?
