How to fix NTFS file system Blue Screen of Death on Windows 11 and 10

No one expects a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) to ruin their day when they boot up their PC. If this happens, don't panic.

The first step is to understand why it happened. A Blue Screen of Death usually indicates a problem with your PC that is severe enough for Windows to shut down itself to protect your system from further damage.

Blue Screens of Death often come with hard-to-decipher names, and the NTFS_FILE_SYSTEM (or NTFS File System) error on a Windows 11 or 10 PC is no exception. This error usually indicates a problem with your system drive.

Once you know what the problem is, you can use the following steps to fix it.

Check the storage space of an NTFS formatted local drive

Due to the size of modern laptop and desktop drives, you may forget to make sure it has enough storage space. Therefore, if your drive is full, it can cause NTFS file system errors and blue screen of death.

To quickly clean up your local drive and reclaim GB of space on Windows 10 or 11, do the following:

1. Open File Explorer and selectThisComputer.
2. Right-click on the local drive (usually C:) and select Properties from the menu.
3. When the "Local Disk Properties" window appears, click the "Disk Cleanup " button.
4. Next, if you click OK you will see the amount of space you got. However, click the Clean System Files button to regain more space.
5. Windows will recalculate the drive space gained and you should see a larger number. So, for example, here we can save almost 7 GB of space by deleting old system files; when ready, click OK.
6. Click the Delete File button when the verification message appears.

The time it takes to complete the cleanup will vary. Note that reclaiming large amounts of space will take longer. Once the process is complete, restart your PC and see if the error still occurs.

Reclaim Disk Space on Windows 11

While you can use the same steps above to clean your drive, you can also use the Settings app on Windows 11 to recover disk space.

To free up disk space on Windows 11, use the following steps:

1. Click Start and open Settings from the menu.
2. When Settings opens, navigate to System > Storage.
3. Scroll down to the Storage Management section and click Clean Recommendations.
4. Scroll down and expand Temporary files, Large or unused files, Files synced to the cloud and Unused Applications. Select the items you want to remove in each section and click the Clean button.
5. To view advanced options, including system files you can delete, click the View Advanced Options link in the Temporary Files section.
6. A new set of temporary files will appear (like Windows Update Cleanup) that will help you reclaim a lot of space. Note that you may need to uncheck the "Download" option. If Download is selected, all files in your personal Downloads folder will be deleted.
7. After selecting the items you want to delete, click the "Delete File " button. Note that the total space that will be reclaimed is shown at the top. For our example, we will get 9 GB of space. The amount of space you clear will vary.
8. When the verification screen appears, click Continue.

Hope a lot of disk space is reclaimed. Restart Windows 11 and see if the error no longer appears.

To avoid disk space issues, it is best to enable Storage Sense on Windows 10. You can also enable Storage Sense on Windows 11.

Check and fix drive issues

If your local drive has errors, it may cause an NTFS file system error blue screen on Windows. Fortunately, Windows 10 and 11 include the free ChkDsk utility for finding and repairing drive problems.

To check for disk errors and repair bad sectors on Windows 10 or Windows 11, do the following:

1. Click Start or press Windows key, search for PowerShell, and select Run as administrator from the right column.
2. When PowerShell opens, run the following command in Terminal and press Enter.

   chkdsk /r /f

   Copy after login
3. The utility will prompt for a scan during the next restart of Windows, type Y and press Enter.

Run SFC and DISM Scan

If you have enough drive space and the disk is checked out, the problem may be internal to the system. Running DISM and SFC scans will find corrupt system files and replace them with working files. These utilities are available on Windows 10 and Windows 11, and running them is the same.

To run SFC and DISM scans, use the following steps:

1. 单击开始按钮并搜索PowerShell。
2. 单击右侧的以管理员​​身份运行选项。
3. 当终端打开时，输入以下命令，然后按 Enter。

   sfc /scannow

   Copy after login

   

4. SFC 扫描完成后，运行 DISM 扫描以获得良好的测量效果——尤其是在 SFC 扫描无法替换文件的情况下。DISM 扫描检测损坏的文件并将其替换为来自 Microsoft 服务的工作文件。
5. 键入以下命令并按Enter。

   DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

   Copy after login

   

尝试干净启动或安全模式

如果您无法通过 NTFS 文件系统错误蓝屏，请尝试干净启动进入 Windows 11。干净启动使用最少的启动应用程序和驱动程序来加载操作系统。

如果干净启动有效，则需要启动 PC 并一次启用一个应用程序和服务，直到找到罪魁祸首。

如果您在进入登录屏幕之前仍然收到错误消息，请将Windows 11 引导至安全模式。或者，如果您尚未使用 Windows 11，请将Windows 10 引导至安全模式。在任一系统上，请确保选择使用命令提示符启用安全模式，以便您可以运行上面显示的实用程序。

将 Windows 重置为出厂设置

如果上述选项不起作用并且您仍然收到 BSOD NTFS 文件系统错误，那么是时候采取更激进的步骤了。您需要使用 Windows 内置的重置此 PC 实用程序。

重置此 PC 功能允许 Windows 重新安装并保留您的文件；但是，您要先备份系统。这样，如果在此过程中出现问题，您可以从系统映像备份中恢复您的 PC。请注意，创建 Windows 10 系统映像几乎相同。
