E: is FAT? Correct?

If you want Warp to be able to use this partition, I suggest you haul out
your backups and prepare to restore the busted partition. You have
allowed too many applications to trash the drive without an understanding
of what needed to be fixed.

If all you want are the data files off the partition, you might be able to
do some surgery with dfsee to bypass the chkdsk and remove all the EA's.
If the installed applications are not WPS aware, the lost EA's may not be
a problem. Given you description of the errors, It's hard to know if you
have overwritten any of the files on the drive.
