Defrag question
Try running disc cleanup before defrag.
"David McConnell" wrote in message ... It used to be that when I would run defrag on my c: drive, the whole enchilada would get defragged - but for the last couple of months there's two files that simply won't defrag. One of the problems is that I can't tell exactly which files these are. When I view the report after an attempt, all the report tells me is that there are 822 fragments in a file with a size of 182mB, and that there are 1,698 fragments in a file with a size of 193mB - and that both files are under \Documents and Settings\David J. McConnell..., but as far as I can tell, I have no files of this size in any of the folders contained under this file prefix. This leaves me with total fragmentation of 12% and file fragmentation of 25%, which doesn't sound good to me. Is there anything I can do to get the whole drive defragged ever again, or am I stuck with this problem? |
