Hi,

Generally defrag utility is built-in but not to defragment individual
files - only whole partitions or mount points.

The answer is no. The pagefile and the mft are not defragmented. The
Microsoft provided Defragmenter is a cut down version of Diskeeper
and that does defragmenter the files in Boot Mode. You have to buy
Diskeeper or use pagedefrag available for free from Microsoft.

Hi,

Of course answer is no - I didn't say that using defrag you can work with
individual files ;-)
