Solved How to bring the old-fashion Disk Defragmentation in Windows Vista

Hi all ( Happy New Year .... coming soon :party: )

i was wondering if it is possible to bring the old-fashion Disk Defragmentation which we used previously in Windows XP

i mean this one:
defrag.jpg


instead of this one:
vistadefragno9.jpg


the problem facing me when using Disk Defragmentation in Windows Vista is i cant see reports or see the graph of my disk before and after the Defragmentation process. besides, i feel more comfortable with the old Defragmentation appearance found in Windows XP.

is it possible to bring back the Disk Defragmentation appearance in Windows Vista.

Thanks.

Hello CityStars,

Yes, but you will need to use a 3rd party program like the free Auslogics Disk Defrag instead.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Hello Brink,

i guess you are right, as i have read most of the topics in VistaForums discussing the defragmentation issue and all of them recommended a 3rd party application as Auslogics Disk Defrag or O&O Defrag

thanks to you sir for your reply, much appreciated.
