Thanks everyone. I am not having any problem with my system but I
like defragging my disk every month. I have been using auslogic for
the job but now I want to uninstall all unnecessary software form my
system to boost its speed. So I was wondering whether windows
built-in defrag can do the job for me.

...oh yeah, after running whatever gets run to defragment, that after
picture sure looks good - not so much red stuff as in the before
picture, so this tells me that the defragment really did the job and.
I told you! Look how fast it is now! (they say).

But after a short while... Wait - my computer is slow again or even
worse and I only recovered .01% free space. Therefore I must need a
better defragment tool.


Why would you expect defragging to give you more disk space? Where
would that space come from? You don't seem to understand the concept
of defragging. The process doesn't magically give you more room on
your hard drive.


And why would you be so ignorant as to think everyone else in the world
knows not only what you know, or would even know the basics of
fragmentation, etc.. That he hasn't misinterpreted something read,been
given false information elsewhere, and so on?? Or are you just on a
trolling mission looking for an arguement about 0.01% recovery in the
free space?

You're right in that fragmentation won't make any measurable difference
is space occupied when measured with the system's own tools, but are you
positive there are not things at work which DO end up with very small
and negligible space recovery? I am.

When you have nothing to say, that's exactly what you should say.
I've no intention of responding further to any of your foolishness here,
either.
