Program that can indicate and/or fix corrupted files?

My computer crashed once and some files got corrupted. I know that many programs exists out there which they can fix the files, but I need a program that searches for the corrupted files BY ITSELF since I have too many files on my pc and I don't know which are corrupted or not and of course I can't search them one by one. I don't really care if the program can fix the the corrupted files. (Even though I prefer to). I just want to know which files are the bad ones to delete them and free some space.

Update:

Thank you both for your answers. But my problem is kind of old. That why I said "my computer crashed ONCE". This happened a long time ago. My current windows (7) version are ok. I just found some old corrupted files and thought to fix them. And I need a program that will search and find these corrupted files.

    How To Find Corrupted Files

  • 1 decade ago

    Do a Windows disc check. Right click your C:\ drive and click Properties. Go to Tools > Error Checking > Check now...

    Hit okay and it will ask you to restart your system to start the check.

    If any files are corrupt, Windows will attempt to repair them. Else, it will generate a list of all the files it couldn't fix and store them in a log which you probably won't read anyway. Clear your HDD of junk files using the Disc Clean-up tool to wipe any unsuccessfully recovered file fragments.

    Done.

    nicely, you've been suitable in determining it replaced into the video card. notwithstanding, that's totally a danger because it keeps to do this once reformatting and reinstalling each and everything and attempting to reinstall the video drivers that the video card itself is undesirable. i'd propose attempting a quite some video card to make certain if that solves the issue if a danger.
