I don’t believe it when it tells me:
“You do not need to defragment this volume”

if I click on “View Report” and there is one file that’s fragmented then I do the defragmentation it saves a lot of time rather than waiting for “it” to say;
“You should defragment this volume”

and then waiting for anywhere from 1 – 16 hours for it to do the job.
(I generally do a “defrag” every day, either @ start up, or just before I shut everything off and it’s no more than a couple of minutes each drive.)

Hi, I stumbled here somehow and just wanted to say a GIGANTIC Thank-You. This site kicks a lot of ass and I just totally freed up a ton of space on my computer by using your tips.

Screw Computers for Dummies, you do a great job of putting this stuff up to make sense for folks like myself.

I'm coming back here when I have more time and I have a feeling I'm going to get lost in it for quite a bit.

My computer says Gracias as well, it feels less bloated I'm sure.

Have a good one!!!!
