keeping large files @ end of drive during schedled defrags

I've just started using Defraggler and I'm delighted with it overall. It runs slower than Windows Disk Defragmenter, but I prefer the resulting file load speed of Defraggler.

 

I have a question about moving large files to the end of the drive. I have Defraggler set to move all video files > 500MB to the end of the drive, but I can only do this when I launch Defraggler manually. When I have Defraggler scheduled to run automatically every morning at 6am, the large video files are moved back toward the faster part of the disk.

 

How can I have the large files stay near the end of the drive when Defraggler runs unattended?

We will be adding the ability to move large files with the command line version very soon.

There's always an exception to the rule. I'm that exception.
