CHKDSK, the Windows free built-in command line utility, is usually the first choice for users to check and repair disk errors. However, sometimes, you may encounter a common error "Failed to transfer logged messages to the event log with status 50" during the hard disk repair process in Windows 10/8.1/8/7/2008/XP/Vista or some other versions.
"Failed to transfer logged messages to the event log with status 50" error message usually occurs due to two main reasons:
Here, you'll find two solutions to fix this error.
Step 1. Run CHKDSK to repair disk corruption or bad sectors
Since "Failed to transfer logged messages to the event log with status 50" error message might occur due to corruptions or bad sectors in Windows partition, you can run "chkdsk c: /r /f /v" command to recover readable information from bad sectors & repair file system errors.
Step 2. Recover data with EaseUS data recovery software
If chkdsk c: /r /f /v failed to repair the corruptions in the hard disk, you may need to find a solution to retrieve your files in case of unexpected data loss disaster. Here EaseUS disk data recovery can help.
1. Download and install EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard on your computer.

Note: Keep in your mind that if your internal hard disk is badly damaged and cannot boot to Windows, you have to download EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard Pro with Bootable Media to retrieve your data. For a detailed tutorial, please refer to how to recover data from laptop hard drive that won't boot.
If you are trying to boot your PC from an installation disk and run CHKDSK, you may get the "Failed to transfer logged messages to the event log with status 50" error because the log data can not be written or copied to the installation disk.
But don't worry! You can try running CHKDSK after booting to safe mode to fix the issue:

2. Restart your computer.
3. Press the "F8" key before the Windows logo appears.
