Geek Software of the Week: Defraggler!
It seems we have been getting a lot of defrag utilities lately… but this one comes from our friends at CCleaner and Recuva, both of which have been GSotW honorees as well. And, you can defragment a file at a time, if you want. So, check it out!
“From everyone here at Piriform, the company that brought you CCleaner and Recuva… we now bring you a file defragmentation tool… Defraggler! It differs from other defrag tools on the market, by enabling you to quickly and simply defrag the files you want to, without having to process the whole drive. Simply run it, select the file and defragment in seconds. No more struggling with the Windows defragmentation tool! And remember like all Piriform products, Defraggler is completely free for both corporate and individual use.”
Thanks, looks interesting! May have to try it out, though I suspect it will not replace my primary commerical defrag utility because it is not automatic.
With automatic defragmentation, I essentially have to do nothing…the defragmenter automatically does everything for me from analyzing the drives to defragging during idle time. More efficient and convenient than manual or scheduled defrag because time spent by me on defragging = zero.
But for those rare occasions when I need to defrag a single file, the tool in the link above might prove useful.
