• QUESTION ABOUT DISK DEFRAGMENTATION

  My computer must be turned on when I do the program "Disk Defragmentation? It is planned to make the service on some time each month, however, I don't always have the computer at this time.

  To do a disk defrag, your computer must be on a Buddha (not on standby).

  If you have scheduled a moment when the computer is not on the value, it will not turn on your computer to do either.

  Some computers have a program that you can use to set a date and once your computer turns on automatically. In most cases, this parameter can be set in a menu before loading the Windows operating system.

  NOTE: Not all computers are built with this feature.

• 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?

  Bob, I, personally, would eliminate the settings to see if that helps.  When you do this it can give you a clue to the other program involved.  The worst that can happen is that you need to reinstall the other program.

• monitoring the progress of disk defragmentation

  Is there a chart/graph of the current progress of disk defragmentation?  If so, how do you access?

  Hello

  Unfortunately there is no GUI when you use the Defragmenter supplied with windows Vista.

  An alternative that is very popular is the free version of Auslogics Disk Defrag available on the following link.

  http://download.CNET.com/Auslogics-Disk-Defrag/3000-2094_4-10567503.HTML?part=DL-6267754&Subj=DL&tag=button

  When you first run the software above, will give you the possibility of partition (s) you want to defragment - as with any 3rd party defrag utility, only the C Partition must be selected.

  Kind regards

• Disk defragmentation repeated after you install a Registry Cleaner program.

  Original title: Disk Defragmenter

  Hello.

  I use Windows XP Prof and IE 8.

  "After" install a Registry Cleaner program, a disk defragmentation task was executed, and he indicated that the volume needs to be defragmented. Subsequently, the task of disk defragmentation was performed again and he said that 'always' volume must be defragmented even if there is nothing to defragment (no red line showing).

  'Before' installing the program Registry Cleaner, disk defragmentation task was performed and she would declare that the volume needs to be defragmented. Subsequently, the task of disk defragmentation was performed again and he said that the volume was already defragmented (no red line showing).

  Why the registry cleaner would lead the program Defragmenter to 'think' that he needs to defragment even after this has been done (and no red line showing)?

  Thanks in advance.

  I will not bore to 'clear all' regularly because I can see the red error icon and the yellow warning icon clearly by scroll.

  Bottom line: Defrag works so I will continue to "analyze" and defragment every day when there are red lines in the graph, but not worthwhile to defragment a second time, unless the red lines still appear.

  Thank you 'a lot' to work on this issue with me - It is much appreciated.

• 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.

• I can not defrag.my PC, it is constantly in a X box [Disk Defragmenter has detected that Chkdsk is scheduled

  complete the question was in my title.thank you

  When you try to defragment a volume and Disk Defragmenter reports:

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

  This means that the volume that you want to defragment was marked 'dirty' XP.  This is not necessarily all of the data has been lost on the volume, it simply means that XP thinks that the volume should be checked to find errors because of something that happened before.

  You won't be able to defragment the volume until the dirty bit has been removed.

  This does not mean that a disk check is scheduled to run, and you can't cancel what needs to happen in this case because this isn't the problem.

  Also the dirty bit is not set on a volume, you can still run a disk defrag with a record of date of arrival in the meantime (try).

  Entry of commands to reset or erase a disc awaiting verification or suggestions for changes to the registry to make changes is a waste of time - that is not the problem.

  A volume can be marked as dirty, if the system underwent a power interruption (power failure, pulling plug, removing the battery, button / stop), abandoned restart or an abnormal termination.  One of these events?

  When XP starts, it automatically checks the bit of impurity on each volume.  You can also tell XP to ignore the bit of impurity on any volume, but this probably isn't a good idea in case there is a real problem that needs to be fixed.  If you have a hard drive where the dirty bit will not disappear, you can tell XP not to check.

  If the starting XP detects that the volume is dirty, it will be automatically run the check disk with error correction (chkdsk/r) and try to fix the problems detected.

  If the chkdsk command succeeds, it clears the dirty bit, and then you can defragment the volume.

  You can check the status of your bit of impurity from a command prompt window.

  To do this, click Start, run and enter in the box:

  cmd

  Click OK to open a command prompt window.

  For example, 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

  Is the volume of your sale or it is not dirty?

  You cannot use fsutil or chkntfs from a command prompt to delete the bit of impurity on a volume.

  The only thing that can clear the bit of impurity on a volume is chkdsk /r (or chkdsk/p).  You could tell XP not to check the bit of impurity on a volume where the dirty bit does not erase, but this probably isn't a good idea since there is some sort of problem on the volume.

  You will be not also solve this problem by editing your registry database (pay attention technical support engineers and moderators of Forum)-is not the problem.

  Once a volume is marked as dirty, the only way to clear the dirty bit is to run "chkdsk/r" or "chkdsk/p" when the volume is not in use.  The only way a volume can not be used while XP is just starting to load or from the XP Recovery Console.

  If XP will not run chkdsk correctly when your system restarts or the dirty bit will not erase as it should, you need to look in the Event Viewer log chkdsk and see what is happening and fix it.

  If XP will not always clear the dirty bit, you need to run chkdsk/r of the XP Recovery Console so you can look and see what works and run it again until it works.  If your hard drive fails, you may never be able to clear the dirty bit, in this case, you can also say XP never check the afflicted volume dirty bit (this will usually do the trick).

  Saying XP not to check the bit of impurity on a volume would be risky behavior because there would always be some kind of problem with your hard drive.

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

• 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.
