Well, formatting the drive could be the best option for you to fix “the file or directory is corrupted and unreadable” error. Here’s how you can format a hard disk: • Find the affected hard disk partition and right-click on it • Choose the format option on a drop-down menu • Then, choose the file system and click on the Quick Format option. • Click on the ‘Start’ option to begin the formatting process.
Do sudo ntfsfix /dev/sda1, where /dev/sda1 is your NTFS disk. Make sure it is unmounted.
