Can we please the top of the Report as well as the Most Fragmented List.

I would be interested in seeing a Disk Defragmenter report. Open Disk
Defragmenter and click on Analyse. Select View Report and
click on Save As and Save. Now find VolumeC.txt in your My Documents
Folder and post a copy. Do this before running Disk Defragmenter as it
is more informative.

Hope this helps.

There is not a lot wrong with your Disk Defragmenter Report. The main
puzzle is the Avast setup.log did you actually move it off disk as the
result suggests not.

I wonder if it would defragment if you ran Disk Defragmenter in Safe
Mode. Has the file changed since it was created? I also wonder how long
you actually need to keep a SetUp log. Not using Avast I do not know the
answer.

My feeling is that if you ran cCleaner and removed restore points
through the More Options tab in Disk CleanUp you should end up with no
fragmented files. If the Avast SetUp log remains fragmented try Safe
Mode,

I don't recall for sure, but I probably copied the Avast file
when I could not move it. But the move back still could not
overwrite it, as expected. I'm not concerned with it. As long
as I can defrag the bad ones, over 100 fragments, I don't bother
with the small ones.

This process just gets me out of waiting for the whole disk to defrag.

The Avast file could be in use or protected, which is why I suggested
running Disk Defragmenter in Safe Mose.
