How do I fix data error cyclic redundancy check?

[Erza Zoya]

I am getting this error every time I run the code - data error cyclic redundancy check. Can some smart people assist me on this error?

To fix a Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) Error:

1. Run CHKDSK – Open Command Prompt as admin, type chkdsk /f /r X: (replace X with your drive letter).
2. Check cables – Reseat or replace faulty SATA/USB connections.
3. Use data recovery tools – If the drive is failing, backup files immediately.
4. Format the drive – As a last resort (erases all data).

If the issue persists, the drive may be failing—replace it.

A cyclic redundancy check (CRC) error usually indicates corrupted data. To fix it, run CHKDSK by opening Command Prompt as administrator and typing chkdsk X: /f /r (replace X with the drive letter). Wait for the scan to complete. If that fails, try data recovery software or replace the cable/device if hardware issues persist.
