Solve : Really bad case of fragmented files?

Answer»

Title tells you what this is about. When defragmented a vast amount of fragmeted files will not be defragmented. The computer hasn't been defragmented for years so there is about 90% of files are fragmented. We have tried to defragment multiple times but it does't make a difference. So what is the solution to this other then re-format?


Edit: Disk cleanup was ran before defrangmenting.I don't know if anyone else will agree with me or not, but I think the only way to fix all of those files is to do a reformat.  Especially since it's over 90% of your system.  I had a computer that hadn't been defragmented for years too and it really got bogged down because of it.  I ended up reformatting and it worked as good as new.  Don't forget to back up important documents!TRY a BETTER defragmentation program.

I use Sysinternals' POWER Defragmenter (+ GUI) Is that other defragmenter on the computer or downloadable? Quote from: Idea CONSULTING on May 03, 2007, 08:37:34 AM

Google for it, it's freeware. www.diskeeper.com

Costs money, but as far as I know the best defragmenter on the planet. A reformat would SOLVE the problem, but is a bit drastic.

How much free space do you have? If you have too little, you will not be able to defragment effectively.
