Kommentar: Defraggler är mycket enkel att använda. Man klickar på Analyse och får efter några sekunder fram en lista med alla fragmenterade filer. Man väljer vilka filer man vill defragmentera, t.ex. de mest fragmenterade eller alla. Man klickar på Defrag Checked och väntar på att defragmenteringen ska bli klar. Det bli den på MYCKET kortare tid än om man använder diskdefragmenteraren i Windows. Även om man valt att defragmentera alla filer.
