How To Use Sysinternals Contig.exe

I should have explained further what I meant by "Stealth" mode....the file
does not appear in Safemode.

It seems that you cannot do anything with this file
"C:\Windows\System32\CatRoot2\tmp.edb". You cannot delete, copy, transfer,
defrag, or anything else. It's like a "stealth" file and the only Windows
file that I have ever seen like this.

Very unique file to say the least.....

Perhaps start in Safe Mode and just delete it.

Thanks, as your instructions worked! But the file still cannot be
defragged
for some reason.

Hi;

I would like to defrag the following file
"C:\Windows\System32\CatRoot2\tmp.edb" with Sysinternals Contig v1.55.

I extracted the file Contig.exe from the Sysinternals Suite to my
Desktop,
but when I click on it the Command Prompt screen briefly appears and
then is
gone.

How can I use this application to defrag the file listed above?
Please
give me specific instructions.



Are you ready ?. Then we`ll begin.
Start / Run , and type in CMD
Now you are in the Command window.
Open SI Contig, by highlighting, and drag it into the
command window.
Then add the full path to you file...
C:\Windows\System32\CatRoot2\tmp.edb
Leave a space between the two items.
