Disk Defragmenter

[Guest]

My computer does not want to defragment. After 16% of defragmentation,
message popsup - can not defragment files. What can I do? Help!

I wonder, how full is your disc? There may not be enough free
space for the program to work.

With 93% free space the need to defrag. seems remote...

What does it mean - "Sorry, one idea shot then!" ?

Actually it saying:

Defragmentation is complete for: HP_PAVILION (C
Some files on this volume could not be defragmented.
Please check the defragmentation report for the list of these files.

"Sorry, one idea shot then!" is an idiomatic expression meaning "Sorry, I tried to help but my proposed solution was not correct."

When you analyze it, does it say that a defrag is needed?
Maybe run a disk cleanup before defrag, did u run chkdsk? Also try it
in safe mode. Else simply try another tool and see if it works. you can
check this out, its a neat defragger-
