STATUS_DATA_LOST_REPAIR

File-system repair completed with possible data loss

This warning is produced when Windows found corruption in a file and repaired the file, but the repaired result may not preserve every byte of the original data.

Treat it as a file integrity event. The immediate question is not only whether the volume is now consistent, but whether the repaired file must be restored from backup or regenerated from a trusted source.

What to inspect

  • Identify the repaired file and compare it with a backup or known-good copy.
  • Inspect file-system, storage and disk health events around the repair.
  • Do not silently accept the repaired file for security-sensitive or database workloads.
