Dwartch Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 I run defrag after creating a windows 10 system image. When I run defrag it gets stuck at 1% and when I try to open another drive it becomes unresponsive and my CPU usage becomes 100%. I don't want to end task because it causes windows image to become corrupted. How to fix it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy2 Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 - I could imagine that Win 10 doesn't allow you to defrag that system image file. There are more files that can't be de-fragmented by the program. Such as the files that are used for the System Restore feature in Windows 7 and higher. I think this has to do with the (infamous ??) socalled "permissions". That means that you don't have the appropriate level of permissions to defrag/touch/move that file.
