Problem w/ Disk Defrag

[Guest JJ]

When I run disk defragmentor get a message stating that all files could not

be defragmented and I should review the report to see which files could not

be defragmented. But when I view the report there seem to be no files

indicated. What's up? How do I get a complete disk defrag? Thanks

How many files are not defragmented? The Report gives this information.

 

On my system it discloses one file, which is the MFT (Master File Table)

but never included in the list of fragmented files. Another file which

is never listed is the pagefile. It so happens that the pagefile on my

system is not fragmented so I have accounted for the files which remain

fragmented after running Disk Defragmenter.

Hope this helps.

WHen I view the report, NO files are listed - this is part of my confusion

You are not reading the Report properly. This is the relevant bit!

 

File fragmentation

Total files = 59,721

Average file size = 379 KB

Total fragmented files = 1

Total excess fragments = 17

Average fragments per file = 1.00

 

The fragmented file is the MFT, which is never listed!
