Guy's
I have a bit of trouble defragging my H/D 250gb. Can some sharp cookie get me a link to a nice, free, reliable defrag program for XP/sp3 ??
Thanks
Benny

For a full disk defrag, use jkdefrag (link in first reply).

For a folder/file defrag (when you want that particular software you just installed to be defragged without waiting 3 hours), use http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/Hard-Disk-Utils/Power-Defragmenter.shtml

This is the best one; 32-bit and 64-bit versions, all Windows platforms - desktops and servers. I reclaimed 6GB from the wife's notebook the other weekend.

Every now and then (and the very first time) run with:

jkdefrag.exe -a 7

And it does not need the 15% free disk space that the crippled in-built Windows one needs.

How are these programs more effective than what's already in Windows? Thanks.
