I would like to use the scheduler for the disc defrag. program but I cannot
find it with the scheduler setup. I can run it manually but not on
automatic it seems.
Am I correct or am I missing something?

The file is called "dfrg.msc" , in your system32 directory, but it's easier
to schedule the command line version "defrag.exe" (eg in a small batch file
or script)
