Can't View Defrag Progress
I too wish I could see the progress. It may sound weird but I miss watching
it do something, you almost wonder if it is doing anything at all.

I think this is the biggest but report for Vista most are missing a GUI with
defrag. in Vista - I like this not to watch the paint dry but to have some sort of visual to know what level has been reached plus see the finished result - sadly it is not there  3rd party software may win this bit of Vista.

This might explain things http://blogs.technet.com/filecab/pages/440717.aspx turns out that progress meter that people liked to watch was actually meaningless and inaccurate. If you want to watch something move while a defrag takes place, I recommend putting on a movie and not obsessing over a low level disk operation that shouldn't need us to worry about it. -- Robert Moir www.robertmoir.com

Yea, but I'm one of those guys that like to peer through a fence and watch
workmen on a building site. Colin "Robert Moir" wrote: drw1304 wrote: I too wish I could see the progress.

But with XP's defrag, it turns out that what you were watching through the hole in the fence was a film of the time the workmen were defragging a disk that was like your but slightly different.

Well weather it's accurate or not i would like to be able to see something. I understand that one wasn't right but with all the added things these days you would think they could make it right. or at least some kind of meter. I wouldn't mind trying a different program but it's annoying when they program is already on the computer and it doesn't do what we all want. They should make it to make people happy. -- rjaffeux
