Defraggler & PageDefrag


The Don

Recommended Posts

I would like if someone can tell me if using Defraggler with PageDefrag from Sysinternals are both required.

 

The reason I ask this whenever I launch the PageDefrag it always shows fragments at 1 but today for the first time I noticed one item being at 2 fragments.

So before using it I defragged with Defraggler and than returned to PageDefrag and noticed that the same item that was at 2 fragments was than at 1 fragment.

 

So does this mean PageDefrag from Sysinternals is not required since I use Defraggler?

 

Anyone can clerify this for me.

Much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Not as far as I know.

PageDefrag does many system files that are not available when Windows is running.

Your report is interesting. I hope the Devs respond.

Which file was the file that changed after running Defraggler ?

When did this occur ?

Hi Davey,

The file that changed was:

C:\\Windows\System32\Config\Software

 

This occurred after installing Window Updates and it was the only time I found fragments with Sysinternals.

Hey Davey,

I thought you might be interested in knowing that today after installing a windows update (Microsoft Outlook 2007 junk filter) I noticed the pageDefrag had 3 items with 2 fragments.

 

The 3 items with 2 fragments were:

 

1. C\Windows\System 32\Config\Default

2. C\Windows\System 32\Config\Software

3. C\Windows\System 32\Config\System

 

So I guess Dfefraggler is able to defrag page files.or at least soemtimes.
