How to solve the error code 0x80070570: File or directory is corrupted and unreadable in Windows 8

There are several ways to solve the error code 0x80070570 in Windows 8:

  1. Run a disk check: Open File Explorer, right-click on the drive that is giving you the error, select Properties, go to the Tools tab, and click on Check. This will scan the drive for errors and fix them if possible.
  2. Disable antivirus software: Sometimes antivirus software can interfere with file transfers and cause errors. Try disabling your antivirus software temporarily and see if that resolves the issue.
  3. Use a different file transfer method: If you are trying to transfer files using a USB drive, try using a different USB drive or a different transfer method, such as cloud storage or a network share.
  4. Use a file recovery tool: If the file or directory is truly corrupted and unreadable, you may need to use a file recovery tool to recover the data. There are many free and paid options available online.
  5. Reinstall Windows: If none of the above solutions work, you may need to reinstall Windows to fix the issue. This should only be done as a last resort, as it will erase all data on your computer.
