Issue: trying to defrag a 160Gb Fat32 ext. HDD Defraggler analyses 13% fragmentation, but immediately hangs up, eventually self-aborts. Problem exists whether running on WinXP or Win7. Can anyone help with this? Thanks

Got it. Will unchecking this entry from the defrag process. On Win 7 there's also a smaller drive (partition?) called 'Factory Image'. Should this be defragged too? Thanks ever so much for your help. R

There are 7 identical files named: C:\Sys..Vol..Info..\SPP\OnlineMetadataCache\ and one single but huge entry named: {1bd7bea-341e-11df-9416-406186961b43}-3808876b-c176-4e48-b7ae-04046e6cc752} This entry by itself represents 3.9Gb of the total 4.7Gb fragmented files (13%). I see no sign of random names. Is this any help?

Sorry, not proficient enough to answer intelligently. How do I find this?

Hi, newly switched to Windows 7, with 1 Tb HDD in NTFS (brand new, about 15% used space). First run of Defrag appeared to have aborted itself (or was aborted by HP??). Second run showed an even higher defragmentation of 19%/>40G defragged files. When it was down to 8G defragmented files and still showing 19% defragged, I stopped it because it seemed hung up. Suggestions anyone? Thanks
