So, this only occurs when manually invoking ChkDsk with repair, or when Windows decides to do so on bad shutdown?

I don't understand how such core things break in Windows.

I suppose it's because they now "test" using virtualized hardware. So even if chkdsk runs during their tests, it's running on a virtualized disk, not a real SSD.

Honestly, I'd pay money so they bring back the testing team and not use all of us non-enterprise users as beta users.

Hah - you DO pay money, if you're using Windows. That's the problem.
