The version that is included with Windows XP and later provides limited functionality in maintaining disk performance by defragmenting volumes that use the FAT, FAT32, or NTFS file system. So it seems to be a part of the product or am I missing something?

Yes, you are missing something. Someone has installed a full version of
diskeeper, and you've been told to uninstall it.

I looked up Diskeeper in Control PaneServices. It was set to start up automatically. Why ? I changed it to start up manually. Mistake ?

You really should answer the following questions in order to provide better information to work with. Does XP defrag work now? Have you tried to uninstall it via Contron Panel's Add or Remove Software? What brand is your computer? Twayne`

It gives an option to ignore the problem and continue. It always works after ignoring the snap-in problem. I haven't tried to uninstall Diskeeper because it seems to be the Windows XP defragger. I have a Lenovo T61 running XP Pro SP3.
