"Disk defragment" is not defragmenting

[Guest v]

I have been using Adobe Photoshop elements 3.0 recently editing photos. I

think this is where my problem began. I think it saves each photo, or

portion of photo's somewhere. After using this program previously, I now

have only 1.2 GB of free space, when I should have approx. 4-5GB of space

left. Also, when I try to defragment my "C" drive, it indicates that most of

the drive is red, or "fragmented". When I run the program, it does not clean

the drive. It seems to go through the process, but does not really defrag

any files.

 

I believe Photoshop has files of these edited photos somewhere but I can't

find them. I have searched many different options on the "C" drive to no

avail.

 

Please help.

I have this problem too. I boot up to Win98SE and it defrags lovely.

When I reboot to Win2k after defragging with Win98, it looks perfect.

People will say boot in safe mode, etc but nothing I've tried has

gotten it to work like it should.

I use the Win ME defrag. It is much quicker and has more options than the

W2K defrag. I've been doing it that way for years.

 

P.S.: Ubuntu (and other Linux distros) do not need defragging. For that and

many other reasons, I use Ubuntu more and more. This is a commercial. :)
