redhawk Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 It's the storage file used when your machine goes into hibernation. I don't know why it's not defragging maybe you don't have enough contiguous free space for it to be moved. If you have no need for hibernation you could always turn this feature off and free up more hard drive space. Richard S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular defrag/CCleaner and AVG cleanup sequences. I have no need for hibernation and maybe you could tell me how to turn this feature off? Thanks!!!
