 Hapepe82: This seems to be a very nice tool. Optically pleasing, yet fast, slim and - as far as I can tell - good at getting its work done :)!

Great, I can't wait to test it on my Vista64 at home, as it says it does support 64 bit OS with the current version (or version 1.01.044+ to be exact! ;-) [2008-05-20 07:32]

 Technomancer: I've checked it out and i'm impressed. A very neat and nicely written program. [2008-05-23 09:46]

 Erind: How is it compared to JKDefrag? [2008-06-26 04:48]

 John Godwin: Win95 & 98 had a very similar programme to defrag files but it was very slow, infact you could be watching over it all night quite seriously. The Window version however gave the programmer an insight into what was happenning on the hard drives. This version of Defragler will give more or less the same information as before and is so quick, no more using matchsticks to keep your eyes open all night. God bless you programme compilers. [2008-07-20 07:09]

 grannyGeek: I love this app! My newish Liteon dvd burner has a skittish buffer, and making sure my files are de-fragged before burning helps keep the fluctuations to a minimum. (resulting burns sometimes skipped and pixilated).
No more ages of defragging a big 250 gb drive --- Now I just defrag the selected video files, and burn with confidence. [2008-07-29 01:53]

 Kevo: I packaged up a U3 version of Defraggler as well for download here if anyone uses a U3 USB drive: http://www.ccleanerdownload.org/ccleaner-211-for-u3-enabled-usb-drives [2008-09-16 11:36]

 isi: crashes in vmware workstation wxpsp3 :-( [2008-09-23 02:37]

 a: You can save space and reduce the clutter if you delete all the lang*.dll files. To make defraggler write it's settings to an ini file go to Settings > Options > and check "Save all settings to ini file". You may also want to disable updates uncheck "Automatically Check for updates to Defraggler". [2008-12-17 16:53]

 AncientImages: EXTREMELY limited. Why would anyone pick this over Jkdefrag? My guess is, the prettier interface. But when it comes to issues of performance, does an interface really matter? Just start the program and walk away. Or in the case of Defraggler, just walk away. [2009-01-13 11:17]

 dark1: @AncientImages: I am also an Jkdefrag User. But Defraggler is able to defrag single Folders. [2009-03-13 23:44]

 punjabi: The instructions to 'install' as a portable application are not complete. If you check out the link on the help pages of the Defraggler website -- http://docs.piriform.com/defraggler/advanced-usage/running-defraggler-from-a-usb-drive -- you find that you are directed to create a file named portable.dat in the same folder as the folder used to extract the zipped archive. This 'forces' the use of the INI file to store settings. By the way, great application! [2009-03-17 06:21]

 Rebuz: Defrag v.1.08 don't remember splited parts of window!!! [2009-04-01 05:33]

 Mike: One of my favorite defragmenters. I like how it defragments only the files that really need it. [2009-08-24 18:42]

For more general topics (eg. whether apps that write to the registry, leave traces on the host machine, rely on certain versions of IE etc. can be considered portable), please post to the Portable Freeware Discussion forum. If your virus scanner has detected a virus in the application, please email the author directly or post to the forum. Note that false positives (i.e. flagging a virus when there is actually none) are extremely common for virus scanners. When in doubt, try an online scanner like Online Malware Scanner or VirusTotal, which scans files using multiple anti-virus engines. It is very likely to be a false positive if only a few engines raise the red flag.
