I have a serious situation! I put all of my icons in my start menu, so you could see the pic of my kitty. And all of the sudden, I can’t find “disk defragmenter”,”trash bin”or”Rollercoaster Tycoon”!!!! I need help!

when i go into my defrag and set a time for it automatically defrag and then close the window and then go back into it, it always says that the next scheduled run is “never”, why? the run on schedule box is checked but it always says the next scheduled run is never. does anybody know why it is like this?

sorry, i am a IT MORON. just bought a WINDOWS VISTA PC. i am trying to do defrag. i see that there are 2 DRIVES – C DRIVE & D DRIVE.

it says the D DRIVE stores the RECOVERY PROGRAM and when i click to open the programme , there is a warning message to say i should not tamper with this folder.

since i should not tamper it, should i still defrag D DRIVE ?

and can i schedule my defrag when PC is off, not possible right? sorry this qn sounds very idiotic but i know almost nothing about computers.

“If you want the XP style of disk defrag then right click on your ‘My Computer’ icon and select Manage. In the lower section of the left menu you will see Disk Defragment. There you have options to analyze and defrag.”

No you can’t and no it isn’t. You’re getting mistaken with Disk Management….where you can format, partition or change drive paths and letters, but Disk Defragmenter is not there.

Is there any way to set windows vista to automatically shutdown after it has finished defragging?

I used “Auslogics Disk Defrag” and it’s so simple and I used “CC Cleaner” to get rid of Junk file. Somple to use and it’s fast.

Go to download.com to get it. Free!

Vista defrag is useless .. I let mine run for 2 days .. it still did not complete … I downloaded AusLogics Disk defrag … it’s free, fast & gives a good progress report … all the things the VISTA one does not do.
