I using xampp on xp for developing

Sometime, window make me check disk on startup. Window "deleting entry index" some files that i'm developing in htdocs folder and even some database files such as "xxx.frm" on "mysql/data"
I think that is a conflict that, windows don't recognize some files are written by httpd, mysql.

Does anyone have experience with some things like that?
Please give me some advice

No, there must a different reason. Maybe a "weak" Harddisk.

All files are written by the Operating System (Windows), no matter if MySQL or any other process seems to write it.

Option1: My Win dir is C. I install Xampp on D.

There is no better or worse. Take what you need.

It is recommended to run Xampp from C:/xampp, but D:/xampp will work as well.
