    How do I view?

    Hi all,
    How do I view the progress of a HD Defrag in Windows Vista Home Prmium SP1 x64. In Win XP you could watch the progress by clicking on the window while the drive was being defragged.
    Thanks,
    Jakeman97

    Hello Jakeman,

    Unfortunately you cannot unless you run it from the command prompt, or use a 3rd party program like the free Auslogics Disk Defrag instead.

    Hope this helps,
    Shawn

    Thank you Brink. I'll probably go with the Auslogics as I just hate those DOS Screens. Gee I thought we were going forward in VISTA...LOL.

    Yep, Auslogics is a pretty neat program (and fast too). Highly recommended.
