Defrag Commander Personal Edition

1 Introduction

Welcome to Winternals Software’s Defrag Commander Personal Edition

®

(PE). Defrag Commander PE is a defragmenter for Windows 2000

®

Windows NT
Windows 98

- and can schedule the built-in defragmenters of Windows Me®,

®

, Windows 95®, and optionally Windows 2000 systems - so that
you can define arbitrarily complex defragmentation schedules for individual
volumes, or for all the volumes on your computer.

Defrag Commander PE also makes it possible for you to view a log file of a
volume's most recent defragmentation so that you can gauge the
effectiveness of your defragmentation schedule. And, while the built-in
Windows 2000 defragmenter snap-in does not allow you to manually initiate a

and

defragmentation and then exit MMC, Defrag Commander PE does.
