Free Defrag Utility for Windows Vista
by Frank Jovine on 12/21/2008 in Computers, Software
Want to keep your computer running smoothly? Would you like to possibly speed it up at the same time? We recommend Defraggler for Vista users. Defraggler has a solid performance, stability and usability. Defraggler has a very clean interface design based on the common Windows defrag interface. Defraggler is incredibly easy to use and offers all the options you need to keep your machine running smoothly – including the ability to defragment individual files and folders as well as a defragmentation scheduler.
Defragmentation Explained:
When you add a file or a new program to a brand new computer, the hard disk is relatively empty so new data is written to the hard disk in one contiguous block. When you need to use that information, the computer can quickly access it because it is all in one place.
As you use your computer adding files and programs, the hard disk begins to fill up. Deleting files or removing programs creates small empty areas among the other data that the computer will reuse. After awhile, the computer is no longer saving information in large blocks. Instead, it stores information in the many little empty nooks and crannies of your hard disk.
Defragmenting your hard drive on a regular basis is a great way to keep your computer running smoothly and fast. We recommend performing a defrag once a month.

This is a great utility, I have been using it for some time now and I’m very pleased with its performance.
Although its important to mention that Defraggler is forma the same company that brought us the incredible CCleaner.

You may wan to try this defrag out, it’s better than the one that comes with your OS.
