Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in the use by another process
Chkdsk is an important and little-understood command-line utility that comes with every version of Microsoft Windows. Its purpose, as its mangled name implies, is to “check” your “disk”.
In order to do its work, Chkdsk needs total and exclusive access to the disk it’s about to check. If it doesn’t have that, “Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another process” results. (“Volume” in this case really means “the disk that’s being checked”.)
