By default, it defrags every Wednesday at 1am. If your PC isn't on then,
it does it when gets turned on next. You can set the time in StartAll ProgramsAccessoriesSystem Tools Task Scheduler. -- Dustin Harper http://www.vistarip.com bob h wrote: I'm new to vista and one care, the only way i have found to defrag my hdd is the old fashion way--right click on the hdd select properties -tools and defrag. is there an easier way? using one care i dont have the option for tune up as they call it--Am i donig something wrong? |

If you are referring to being able to just defrag without the other tune up
utilities - No. "bob h" wrote in message ...

Recommended method is all prog-accessories-system tools-disk defragmenter
to reschedule, not task scheduler, although this is what Disk Defragmenter ultimately talks to. The exe is dfrgui if you prefer win+R -Victoria "Dustin Harper" wrote in message ...
