I get the message: some files could not be defragmented. It tells me they in
the folder \RECYCLER\S-1-5-21-1454471165-688789844-1060284298-1011\Dc12\....
I can't find them using Explorer, or DOS, or ASDspy.exe, or LADS.exe.
Please advise how to find and remove.

Empty the Recycle Bin.

The Recycle Bin is an alias for the \recycler\ folder. If I am not
mistaken, this is a hidden system folder, and that is why those programs
could not find the file.
The problem will go away if you empty the recycle bin. However, as a
fragmented file in that folder is not a problem except as far as such
fragmentation affects the fragmentation of other files, I would not bother
to work on the file. After all, since you have not emptied the file, you
may have determined that you don't want to delete the file.
