Could be because of a dirty volume, or other factors like a failing storage media.
If you are using Windows 10/11 I would run a check disc to make sure your storage medium does not have issues: disk check Windows 10/11

Hi @zaibatsu,
Thank you for reaching out to the Bell Community 🙂
We wanted to check in and see if the full system scan was ever able to finish.
Please keep us posted,

it takes around 8 hours to finish scan on roughly 150000 files before it took about 4 hours.
