Windows: viewing chkdsk results

Self-tutoring about Windows 7: the tutor mentions how to view the results of running chkdsk.

I ran chkdsk today to check the hard drive. Afterwards, the computer restarted, not showing the results.

I looked what to do on the internet. A source link below mentions to open the event viewer from the start box, then look for event ID 1001 under Windows Logs→Application.

I followed that advice and selected event ID 1001 (Wininit rather than Winlogon, I found). There I read the results of the chkdsk I’d run, which reported Windows has made some corrections to the file system:)
