Disk Defrag
'Ello,
On my Windows XP Home edition it won't let me do a disk defrag. Every time I try doing it though windows it says "Windows cannot ops this file: dfrg.msc" and asks me if I want to search the web for a program that will or pick one my self. To start the defrag I am going to Start All Programs Accessiories System Tools Disk Defragmenter and then it comes up with that message. Does any one have any idea how to fix this? Also on another note can you install a copy of Windows XP Pro on a XP Home machine just by upgrading it from one to the other? |
