How Often Should I Defrag?

Good question. The answer is: more often than you might think. For regular maintenance, run defrag at least every 40 hours of computer work time. Some like to defrag every day or so, especially if a lot of multitasking has been done. The first time you go through the procedures on this page, it may take a while to run. From then on, if you defrag regularly, you'll find it is a very quick process, especially if you use the winme_defrag program.

It's a good practice to defrag after installing software, updating Windows or even uninstalling software. If you keep a regular maintenance program, it is very quick and you'll find your system operating much faster and with less errors.
