Chkdsk all volumes without letter from powershell

This command listing all volumes.

GWMI -namespace root\cimv2 -class win32_volume | FL -property  DeviceID

Output:

DeviceID : \\?\Volume{5ec9533e-e4e5-4d99-b8ea-a72673554361}\

DeviceID : \\?\Volume{c4dc8cf6-0000-0000-0000-100000000000}\

DeviceID : \\?\Volume{e3ce6ce0-0000-0000-0000-100000000000}\

DeviceID : \\?\Volume{0cc402b6-0000-0000-007e-000000000000}\

DeviceID : \\?\Volume{73773d2f-0000-0000-0000-100000000000}\

DeviceID : \\?\Volume{c9f9eccc-0000-0000-0000-100000000000}\

DeviceID : \\?\Volume{2bf2a75a-0000-0000-0000-100000000000}\

I want to run chkdsk all volumes, so I added foreach after the command, but I cannot run chkdsk ?

GWMI -namespace root\cimv2 -class win32_volume | FL -property  DeviceID | foreach  {Write-Host chkdsk FL -property  DeviceID /f}

Output

GWMI -namespace root\cimv2 -class win32_volume | FL -property  DeviceID | foreach  {Write-Host chkdsk FL -property  DeviceID /f}
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f
chkdsk FL -property DeviceID /f

What can I do for run chkdsk like this.

chkdsk "\\?\Volume{62f86aa7-0000-0000-0000-100000000000}\" /f

Solution

Rather than use ChkDsk use the PowerShell replacement Repair-Volume cmdlet.

$Vols = Get-Volume

"There are $($Vols.Count) volumes to process!"

For ($Cntr = 0 ; $Cntr -lt $Vols.Count; $Cntr++) {
 
 Repair-Volume -ObjectId "$($Vols[$($Cntr)].ObjectId)"

}

Sample Results:

There are 7 volumes to process!

You notice the error in the list that was for the D drive (CD/DVD w/no disc). You can of course add more parameters to the command to suit your needs. You could also trap errors with a Try/Catch block.
