True Defragment of Defragged Files?
Hello,
Could someone tell me how to get a total defragmenting of "Fragmented" files during the Defragment process? My fragmented files are represented by the color "red." Also, how to do I close closable files so that I can get a better defragmenting without closing programs that need to be running still while Windows XP is running? Help Please, Zack |

True Defragment of Defragged Files?
I don't completely understand the source of this concern to get 100%
defragmentation. Is it thought that a small number of fragmented files slows processing? Or creates potential recovery problems? It seems frankly obsessional. I notice it in myself, and Raxco's advertising is spot on when it promises a "perfect disk." srdiamond On Mon, 26 Apr 2004 02:19:13 GMT, Inglo wrote: On 4/25/2004 6:54 PM Zack brightened our day with: Hello, Could someone tell me how to get a total defragmenting of "Fragmented" files during the Defragment process?

Help Please, Zack If you really want to get your disk 100% defragmented (including system files and the page file), the built in XP defragmenter ain't gonna do it. Give Perfect Disk a try: http://www.raxco.com/products/perfectdisk2k/ I run it every day and when it's done I've got 0 fragmented files. -- srdiamond |

A massively fragmented file system degrades system performance but getting everything "perfect" is just pud pulling. It's for people who have a Felix Unger attitude towards their file systems. Its like how I organize my socks drawer, all properly folded and ordered by type, color and how often I use them; with the weather getting warmer I recently had to move all of my wool socks to the back of the drawer. -- "Smiles everyone, Smiles!" - Mr. Roarke Steve [Inglo] |
