Defragmentation Question

[Tommy Flynn]

When I run Windows Defragmenter, I always get the message that some of the files
could not be defragmented. The file is: \windows\installer\2a5cc3.msp (10MB, 19
fragments). It's probably not important, but is there anything that I can do to
get this file defragmented?

What you could try is to move it to another drive, defragment, then move it
back in. This action should collect the fragments together, and as long as
there is sufficient contigious space at the destination, it's fine.
