Hi Jeff,
>> Now when I right click on a drive in Explorer and select 'Defragment Now'
I don't see that context menu item. I guess you're referring to the button
located in the drive's property sheet. If so, you need to fix the Defrag UI
location in the registry. Check this article:
Error "The Disk Defragmenter is not installed on your computer" when
launching Disk Defragmenter in Windows Vista:

I installed Diskeeper Light - mistake, it doesn't work so I un-installed it.
Now when I right click on a drive in Explorer and select 'Defragment Now'
I get a dialog telling me the Disk Defragmenter is not installed and to
install it by clicking the Add or Remove Programs Icon in Control Panel.
a) By un-installing Diskeeper Light have I managed to un-install the Vista
defragmenter?
b) The error message is going to create some issue since there is no Add
or Remove Programs Icon in Control Panel.
c) I found the de-fragmenter through help & support and it's running now
so the message is incorrect.
Is this 'Working As Designed'?
