i have a Lenovo B490 laptop with Toshiba 500 GB hard disk

in windows 7 it shows my hard disk is broken and may fail soon completely, the pc hangs up a lot, but on ubunutu, mint it works fine without any problem.

Can you guys please show me some good ISO image like linux or any app to repair hard disk, to fix the error and keep the hard disk usable

any method to repair the hard disk
