I wrote the content on these pages to be used by friends who needed some help fixing up their computer.  I seem to be doing this a lot lately and thought this would be a good solution to send people to, especially if I can't be around to walk you through the process.  Enjoy!

    File System Defragmenting

    1. Download and install Defraggler



    2. Start Defraggler (Start -> Program Files -> Defraggler).





    3. Select your hard drive (usually called "Local Disk (C:)") and then go up to Action -> Defrag Drive. Confirm you want to defragment your hard drive.





    4. After it's complete, close Defraggler. You'll want to defragment your hard drive monthly.
