Running the Disk Defragmenter Program

When Microsoft® Windows Vista™ stores files on your hard disk drive, it often divides them into multiple pieces (or fragments) so they fit into available space on the drive. When you attempt to open a fragmented file, it must be retrieved from more than one place, so the process takes more time.

The Disk Defragmenter program groups the fragmented files together on your hard disk drive to improve computer performance. This does not affect the location of files and folders on your computer.

NOTE: The Disk Defragmenter program may take a long time to complete. You can run it unattended overnight.

1Save your work and close all open programs.

2Press the Ctrl key, the Alt key, and the Delete key at the same time.

3Click Start Task Manager.

4On the Applications tab, select all the programs that are listed, and then click End Task. Close the Task Manager.

5Click the Windows Start Button, choose All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, and then click Disk Defragmenter.

6Click Defragment Now.

If Disk Defragmenter repeatedly starts, a hidden background program is still accessing the hard disk drive. Restart the computer in Safe Mode and run the Disk Defragmenter program again:

1Click the Windows Start Button, click the arrow next to the Lock button, and then click Restart.

2Press the F8 key as soon as the first logo screen appears.

3On the Windows Advanced Options menu, use the arrow keys to select Safe Mode and press the Enter key.

4Press the Enter key again to select the operating system.

5Log on to Windows Vista. When the Desktop message appears, click Yes to continue in Safe Mode.

6After Windows Vista starts, use the previous procedure to run the Disk Defragmenter program.
