Instead of using the standard Windows Vista Defrag Tool, use the combination of Contig and PowerDefragmenter to make the process ten times faster.
Steps:
1. Download Contig here.
2. Download PowerDefragmenter here.
3. Save both files in the same directory.
4. Run PowerDefragmenter and click next.
5. Choose options appropriate for you:
Defragment File(s): Defrags up to 4 files
Defragment Folder(s): Defrags up to 4 folders
Defragment Disk: Defrag disk
PowerMode(TM) Disk Defragmentation: Defrags two consecutive defragmentations while keeping the time the same.
6. This pops up Windows Disk Defragmenter…
7. That’s it!
Note: Contig works on OS version NT and above which means this may work for Windows 2000.
