Defragmenter Program to Optimize

the Placement of Files.










 
This

utility program is used to re-organize the files

and un-used space on the hard disk, so that

operation system can access data more quickly

and easily. When operating system stores data on

the disk, it stores the data in the first

available sector on the disk. In this case data

of a file is stored on disk in a scattered form;

it is referred to as “File is fragmented”. The

fragmentation slows down the data accessing

speed of computer. You can improve the

performance of your computer by de-fragmenting

your hard disk.  In De-fragmentation

process, the data of each file is stored in

continuous sectors. There are many third party

software’s available in market for this purpose

but you can use windows built-in utility program

called Disk Defragmenter. To start disk

defragmenter utility, first make sure all

running program are closed.

To run

disk defragmenter utility, go to the Start

button and type dfrg.msc in Run option then

press ok. Now here a disk defragmenter window

will appear. Select any drive and press

defragmenter button. If you have a large hard

disk, this process can take several hours. I

recommend you doing this after one month if you

want to improve the performance of your

computer.
