Thanks!

FSCK is File System Check in Android/Linux similar to Chkdsk/Scandisk in Windows.

I believe every time you boot windows it changes date time stamps on files and it is incorrect according to Android data file system.

I don't think it is any recovered lost files but corrections to the indexes and inode info. I want to say yes to ok to delete... BUT... you could lose data, more likely out of your data.img file than windows but still likely.
