Windows 10: Help with chkdsk

Ran chkdsk /f /r/x from my user file but got message that it could not run because something else was running did not copy the exact message. It also said it could run after the next restart which I said yes and restarted. Displayed : “Fixing C: Stage 1…” with the % of files checked, Total and ETA over 32 hours!. I let it run overnight and now at Stage 5, 32%, Total 44% and ETA 18:39. Can I cancel how? and what and how should I run after the next restart?Thanks for the help!

chkdsk c: /F

It might be an error on the drive. We suggests that you follow the troubleshooting steps below:

• Run Disk Cleanup utility to clear your junk files.
• Open an elevated CMD type sfc /scannow and hit Enter to run the System File Checker.
  
• Once the scan is completed, restart your computer. Remember to exit ChkDsk
  during boot.
• Next, again open CMD as admin type
  Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth and hit Enter to repair the Windows image.
• Now see if ChkDsk able to complete the scan.

Note: Before doing the steps, make sure you save a back up of your files.
