My computer is 24% fragmented (hard drive)... is that bad?

Please help me... in plain English once more... computer won't defragment... could someone help me? Nannette

Hello

In this version of Windows, Disk Defragmenter runs on a schedule if you do not have to remember to run it, but you can still run it manually or change the schedule it uses.

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/what-is-disk-defragmentation#1TC=Windows-7

If you have chosen to run Disk Defragmenter, it may have already been handled by Windows and your system doesn't have a full defragmentation.  So 24%.

To conserve space on my computer, I bought a hard drive and I tried to get my lightroom back up there. (I don't know if I did it correctly or not) Now, all my photos in Lightroom are "offline or missing", and I have no idea what to do next. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I guess you mean not memory and disk space, you want to clear space on the internal drive. Is this correct?

    If you have moved your photos somehow (this is not a backup), please follow these instructions to reconnect photos in Lightroom. Adobe Lightroom - find folders and files moved or missing

    In addition, you must (it is obligatory) make real backups of your database catalog and photos, that means accurate identical copies, made by a method automated and placed on a different physical disk than the originals. Lightroom allows you to make backups of your files of catalog on a regular basis, it is an option under the catalog settings. To make backups of your photos, you need some third party software to do.

    I bought a whole new office 27 "Mac provided with Adobe CS6. Everything worked like a charm until the 1 TB hard drive, developed a bad sector and the Apple Store reinstalled a new I had extended warranty with them. They are recycled the disc immediately (like crazy, I don't ask for this return to get the data off it.) But fortunately, I have all my data on CrashPlan. I downloaded it and it was working fine except that I downloaded it on the desk and not the original location so he had succeed. I also have an external 1.5 TB drive that I wanted to make it bootable, so I installed Mavericks 10.9.3. Then I advanced and installed on disk newly installed too.

I have a serial number for CS6, but Adobe says that it was not valid. (I've owned CS2 and CS4 now CS6 that came preloaded on the Mac by the seller who told me that the software has been registered for the Mac?

    Thank you very much for the help.

    Unfortunately, it won't work.

    Your desktop PC old venerable uses don't suport not the SATA interface and IDE hard disks. He certainly gave you several (10) years of great service.

    SSDS use the SATA interface.

    There is none of the hard drives SSD IDE on the market.

    This is why it was suggested at the forum that you referenced to turn off the old office in the pasture.

  • fragmented hard drive files

    I have a block of fragmented files that 13,78 Gig and defragmentation does nothing to get rid of it on my hard drive. My OS is XP

    Well done.

    You have enough free space to defragment to run.

    Only one problem, this is the toolbar_log.txt file of AVG and it is a known problem with AVG and you can read about it in their forums here (just an example - look in their forums):

    http://forums.Avg.com/us-en/AVG-forums?sec=thread&Act=show&ID=188280

    Here is some information:

    http://blogs.Avg.com/community/AVG-feedback-Update-9-bloated-toolbar-log-files/

    I don't use AVG and won't, but if you want to continue using it, you may ask AVG what to do about such things because obviously they know about it.  Perhaps you need an update, disable certain things or consider replacing it with something like Microsoft Security Essentials which doesn't have these problems.  Your system will give you better performance.

    If you choose to replace your AVG with MSE, remember to use the uninstaller that you can find here:

    http://www.Avg.com/us-en/utilities

    Then you have things like:

    17 1 MB \System Volume Information\_restore {129201FA-B0AC-49B3-96B2-DEB8B91E727B}-RP1\A0000105.exe

    You have a lot of RP1 and who would be the 1 system restore point.

    Such are the XP system restore points and RP1 goes probably back a certain ways unless you've been fidlding with your options of SR - perhaps at least 90 days.  The default time for RPs to 'live' on a system is 7776000 seconds (90 days).  It could be your RP1 is afflicted and you can just knock that one if you want, but you will need some third paryt tool to choose what RPs to hit.

    You could use something like CCleaner to knock out the old RPs or just whack RP1 and see what things look like, or use disk cleanup which will hit all but your last RP.  If you don't think that you care about your course of the last 90 days of RPs, which could be a good idea for you help to leave.

    I don't know why XP sometimes seems to have a hard time with RPs, but sometimes it is, but there are alternatives to the construction in the XP Defragmenter.

    The XP Defragmenter is a lighter version of the popular tool of Condusiv Technologies, called "Diskeeper.  It does a pretty good job most of the time, but there are other (often free) tools that people like best.

    Here are some popular third-party tools that you can analyze and you can do some research on Google for others (in no particular order):

    Some people like the piriformis products and their application of Defraggler suite, you can get here:

    Some people like the suite Auslogics products and their application Defragmenter that you can get from here:

  • Is it possible to recover files deleted from your Recycle Bin, after the failure of the computer after the backup hard drive contained in the folder windows.old, including system files?

    Very well. My computer is messed up awhile back and my friend saved my whole hard drive, the files system and everything, then wiped and restored, then ALL put in a folder called "windows.old" that I can access my hard drive. So since he has saved the files system and everything, I'll be able to recover my old files I had deleted before it was erased, if (hopefully) they is not replaced? If so, what filepath can I go in?

    Hi thatonehxckid,

    The content in the trash is not saved in the folder windows.old during a custom installation.
