• For windows XP Disk Defragmenter it please help...

  How can I get my Defragmenter to work after receiving the error message: (c) defragmentation was interrupted because of contradictions that were detected in the file system. Please run CHKDSK or SCANDISK on (c) to repair these inconsistencies, then run Disk Defragmenter. I ran CHKDSK and SCANDISK but I still get the message.

  Have you run "chkdsk" with the /F or/r option?
  If not, start-> Run-> "cmd".
  Then, enter the command:
  CHKDSK c: /R
  It will then complain that it cannot check the drive as it is in use and offers to do the next time.  Answer 'Y' to this request, then restart.  The chkdsk operation will take more than two hours to complete.

• Disk Defragmenter displays "Disk Defragmenter was planned with the help of another program." ScheduledDefrag task: The task image is damaged or has been tampered

  When you try to start Disk Defragmenter, a popup appears;  "Disk Defragmenter has been set with a different program.

  Disk Defragmenter is currently using customized settings created by another program. Before you change the schedule, you should remove the custom settings. "with two selections: 'Delete settings' and 'Cancel '.  By selecting a choice does not produce no result except in order to reproduce the same popup when attempting again to start the Defragmenter

  There are several reasons why the built-in function may not work. Here are a few simple repairs:

  0. it is malware on the system. Solution: Run an AV Control and also a spyware check.

  1. the disk is too full (you need at least 15% free space, sometimes 20%). Solution: Delete files unnecessary and programs until you have more than 20% free space.

  2. the disc is damaged and must be repaired. Solution: Open "My computer" and right-click on the drive you want to defragment. Select 'Properties' and click on the 'Tools' tab, select 'Check now' to check the drive for errors. Select the two options, and then click Start (it may take a long time and can restart the PC so that it can do the check at boot time).

  3 Disk Defragmenter may be damaged, requiring a restore. Solution: Open System Restore and restore to a point before you start having problems with Disk Defragmenter.

  4. Disk Defragmenter may no longer be on the system or is damaged while it needs a re - install. Solution:
  a. open the menu 'start '.
  b. type '% Windir%\Inf' in the 'Search' box and press 'Enter '.
  c. in the window that opens, find the file named "dfrg.inf.
  d. right-click on "dfrg.inf" and "install".

  5. There are other programs that run the Defragmenter interruption integrated. Solution: Close all running programs. If you think that there may be some running in the background, use Ctrl + Alt + Delete, and then select "start Task Manager". Under the 'Applications' tab, you will find a list of all running applications - you can close these by selecting "end task."

  6. If still no luck, try disabling the screen saver when you run Disk Defrag (you should very well leave the system only when running the built-in defragmentation utility).

  7. If still no go, try to run the defragmenter in Mode without failure. If she runs, something interferes with her and stalking the interference can not be easy (Note: some versions of Win 7 do not allow the built-in defrag utility is running in safe mode.) If your does not, let's say that defrag is disabled mode safe.)

  You should consider to download a free trial of a commercial defragmentation tool.

  Here is a link to a Top 10 reviews of the best defrag programs side-by-side comparison:

  http://Disk-Defragmenter-software-review.TopTenReviews.com/

  You can click on the product and it will give you details on its performance, features, how he did on the exam, etc.

  Top Placer will automatically Defrag in the background and the gold medal prevents fragmentation before it happens and can instantly defragment the fragments of leaves who eats to get.

  Most of the programs featured offers free trials so you can try them and see what they do for you.

  Good luck!

  PS: There are more radical actions to repair you can do. These generally handle most situations, but if not let me know and I'll post the other options as well.

• When I want to start Disk Defragmenter, I get a window that says "Disk Defragmenter uses currently.

  I own a HP Pavilion P6000, model #p7610t. I'm using Windows 7 OS. When I want to start Disk Defragmenter, I get a window with the following message: Disk Defragmenter is currently using customized settings created by another program. There is a button with a blue and Gold Shield that says: 'delete settings '. How can I identify this other program? Should I forget about it and remove the settings?

• Disk Defragmenter does not not on MY Windows 7 (64-bit)

  Hi, I have not been able to defragment my new laptop of the I received (4 days ago)... The software works, and when I say analyze or defragment the completion % is displayed, but the report never comes... I never see how much there is fragmentation on the hard drive... I never get a report after analysis or defragmentation...

  Any help is greatly appreciated...

  Type Disk Defragmenter in the search box above the Start button and press ENTER. What do you see?

  When Disk Defragmenter is then scheduled to run? When it was last run and what was the percent fragmentation?

  Hope this helps, Gerry Cornell

• Unable to use the Disk Defragmenter tool in Windows XP

  Original title: I use windows xp why used my computer open the disk defragmentation

  If I try to open the disk defrag it says the file isint there.

  Hi Gabrella,

  I'm glad to know that you've posted queries in Microsoft communities.

  According to the description, it looks like you aren't able to open the disk defragmentation in Windows XP.

  I have a couple of steps that should help you with this problem.

  Method 1:

  Try the fixit and the steps mentioned in this link and check.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/314848

  Method 2:

  There are several reasons why the built-in defragmentation may not work correctly:

  Step 1. The disk is too full (you need at least 15% free space, sometimes 20%). Solution: Delete files unnecessary and programs until you have more than 20% free space.

  Step 2.

  The disc is damaged and must be repaired. Solution:

  a. open "My computer" and right-click on the drive that you want to disable frag.
  b. Select 'Properties' and click on 'tools '.
  c. Select "Check now" to check the drive for errors.
  d. Select the two options and click on 'start '.

  (This can take time and can restart the PC so that it can do the check at boot time. Be patient and let it complete).

  Step 3. There may be malware on the PC
  Solution - run the Antivirus and Antispyware scans (can take a long time if ever made. Be patient):

  Viruses can cause these problems. Scan your computer for the Microsoft Security Scanner, which allows to get rid of viruses, spyware and software malware.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner expire after 10 days from the date of installation.

  Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

  Step 4. If still no luck, try disabling the screen saver when you run Disk Defrag (you should very well leave the system only when running the built-in defragmentation utility).

  Step 5. If still no go, try to run the defragmenter in Mode without failure. If she runs, something interferes with it in standard mode and stalking the interference may not be easy. Note: Some versions of Win 7 disable the ability to run the built defragmentation tool in safe mode. If disabled, it will say when you try to start it in safe mode.

  Step 6. Disk Defragmenter is no longer on the system or is damaged while it needs a re - install. Solution: Reinstall the built-in function.

  There are several ways to re - install the built-in defragmentation tool

  A:
  a. open the "Start" menu.and click run.
  b. type '% Windir%\Inf'

  c. in the window that opens, find the file named «dfrg.inf»
  d. right-click on "dfrg.inf" and "install".

  B:
  a. go into "start > run" on your computer.
  b. Type "rundll32.exe setupapi, InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132% windir%\inf\dfrg.inf" and press "Enter."
  3. click 'OK' to make the program automatically reinstall itself.

  C:
  a. go to start > all programs > Accessories > right click on command prompt > select 'run as administrator '.
  b. at the command prompt, type "regsvr32 dfrgsnap.dll" and press "enter."
  c. type 'regsvr32 dfrgui.dll' and press 'Enter '. This will reinstall the missing files to Defrag.

  Keep us updated on the status of the issue. For any help about Windows, you can still post on the Microsoft Community.

• Disk Defragmenter is not a full defrag with Windows XP Service Pack 3 installed

  I'm trying to get the Disk Defragmenter in Windows XP to defrag my computer.  However, Disk Defragmenter cannot finish defragmenting more.  I installed Service Pack 3.  Disk Defragmenter has worked very well until what Windows Update installed Service Pack 3 on my computer.  How can I get the Disk Defragmenter to complete my computer defragmentation?

  Hello to both,

  Sorry, but I do not know why defragment will not end.

  Try to run mode without failure.

  If this does not help try this very good free defrag program

• Disk Defragmenter has detected that Chkdsk is scheduled to run on the Volume: C:. Please run Chkdsk /f.

  I know this question has been asked several times, but I did these steps and still not get Defragmenter to work.  My Disk Doctor said I don't have problems with my Defragler work program - but I don't have a C: drive not 'dirty '.  I have Windows XP Home Edition and do not know how to run an XP Recovery Console.  Y at - it an easy way just to get the Defragmenter to work?... when I run Chkdsk... It goes through stages and then closes and the problem is still there.  Defragmenter just stopped working, my computer everything works fine.  Help, please.

  Hmmm...  It should only take a few minutes for ImgBurn to create the bootable XP Recovery Console CD, then maybe one of the songs that you have downloaded (xp_rec_con.iso or install IgmBurn) won't quite right.

  You want ImgBurn to play a happy tune when it is successful and a "Oh no!" message when it fails, but it shouldn't take hours to burn this ISO file bit.  You can try another system.  You can always uninstall ImgBurn when finished.

  I say 'be patient' when you run the chkdsk /r command because sometimes it seems to be stuck (or even go back), but it should end later.  Depending on the volume size, the amount of data on the volume, the speed of your system and what the chkdsk finds to do, you can watch several hours.

  Look at these words from the mouth of Microsoft:

  If you use chkdsk /f on a drive or drives for very large (for example, 70 gigabytes) with a very large number of files (for example, millions of files), chkdsk may take a long time (for example, over several days) to complete. The computer is not available during this time because chkdsk does not relinquish control until it is completed.

  At the time of this writing, I'm guessing a disc 70 GB was "very large" but it is quite modest by today's standards.

  Now with today's technology, it is unlikely to take days, but it could still take some time!  If your HARD drive is afflicted with a problem material and dying, it can never finish or be unable to fix things.

  To start XP, it automatically checks each volume to see if it is dirty and will try to run chkdsk from the afflicted volumes.  Sometimes, it's good enough to clear the dirty bit, sometimes it isn't.  You will see a message at startup if the volume should be checked for consistency and XP will do the best.

  That's exactly what the message tells you:

  Disk Defragmenter has detected that Chkdsk is scheduled to run on the volume: (c :))

  You can query the dirty bit on a volume from the command prompt window.

  Click Start, run and enter in the box:

  cmd

  Click OK to open the command prompt window.

  To query the bit of impurity on drive C, type:

  fsutil dirty query C:

  The sample output:
  Volume c is dirty
  Volume C: is dirty

  Type "exit" to close the command prompt window.

  If you are suspicious of your HARD drive and think it might be failing, now would be a good time to backup your personal data (documents, pictures, music, etc.) to an external location - a separate attached USB drive or a few clouds on the Internet.
