Disk Defragmenter not working.

[Guest]

Hello,

When I click on Disk Defragmenter to start it up, something pops up saying,
"MMC cannot open the file C:\WINDOWS\system32\dfrg.msc. This may be because
the file does not exist, is not an MMC console, or was created by a later
version of MMC. This may also be because you do not have sufficient access
rights to the file."

Help me please.

This fix worked for me. dfrgntfs.exe was crashing. Both from defrag.exe in
a command prompt and dfrg.msc.

Start | Run | Type: regsvr32 dfrgui.dll | Click OK

Start | Run | Type: regsvr32 dfrgsnap.dll | Click OK

Navigate to...
%windir%\inf\ | Right click dfrg.inf | Select Install

Hope this helps. Let us know.
