TechHarmony Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 HI, I am using Defraggler v2.7.0.346. [Windows XP Pro SP3, 2 GB RAM, 2 int HD: 160G + 60G. Various ext HD.] I find that using the Explorer right-click to analyze and defragment a folder is not designed well. If I right click a folder, I can choose to Check Fragmentation, or to Defragment. If I choose Check Fragmentation, when it finishes and tells me the files fragmented, I no longer have a way to tell it to actually defragment. Only choice is to 'Close' or 'Open Defraggler'. If I open Defraggler, I must go through the entire drive to analyze and choose what to do next. But what I really want is to defragment the folder I just checked. To do that, I must "Close" the information window. Now go back to folder in Explorer, and right-click the folder again and this time choose 'Defragment'. This is NOT a good way to do it. There should be a THIRD BUTTON choice to DEFRAGMENT this NOW. (obviously, not in all caps... ) sample of the resulting Check Fragmentation (analyze) right-click choice attached (with my text notes, now redundant). The folder I am testing in this example is on the primary C HD, if that makes any difference. Thank you. It really is a nice and useful program for the most part.

Winapp2.ini Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Seems like a good idea. winapp2.ini additions thread winapp2.ini github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Fast Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 I think a better option is to just change Open Defraggler to Defragment. Launching the full version only makes sense when you want to defrag a whole drive. And if someone is checking a file or folder, that's not enough to warrant opening the whole interface for a few files. I would like it much better if it were changed from Open Defraggler to Defragment, because the only 2 options most people ever will want to see right after checking the file fragmentation on right click, is Defragment & Close. I think your idea is fantastic, just I think the Open Defraggler should be changed to Defragment instead of adding a 3rd button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TechHarmony Posted November 3, 2011 Author Share Posted November 3, 2011 Just checking back in on my topics. I would be fine with the suggestion of 'Super Fast' to have the two buttons on the Context Check Fragmentation operation be: "Defragment" and "Close". That would accomplish what I originally suggest. ______ The Universe is intelligent and friendly 8-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
