How to Defragment Your Hard Disk
1. Launch the TuneUp Drive Defrag module by going to the Optimize system category in the Start
Center and selecting Defragment hard disk under Manually run maintenance tasks.
Alternatively, you can start the module by going to Overview of all functions in the Start Center and
selecting the Defragment entry under Hard disk.
2. Select which hard disks should be checked for optimization potential.
3. Select how defragmentation should take place according to the analysis.
TuneUp Drive Defrag offers you two different ways to defragment (see Introduction, p. 58) so here
you choose which analysis option suits best before the defragmentation.
Out of the four options, the first one is preselected because it gives you a personal recommendation
after the analysis and you can decide for yourself how the defragmentation should be carried out.
For the other three options, defragmentation starts as soon as the analysis is complete. If, however,
the analysis determines that the degree of defragmentation is very low, defragmentation will not be
carried out for these three options because TuneUp Drive Defrag deems it unnecessary.
Wait for result and then decide
We recommend this option for you. Once analysis is complete, you decide for each hard disk whether
you would like to run a fast or thorough defragmentation. You can also decide here to go without
defragmentation.
Automatically as recommended
TuneUp Drive Defrag makes the decision for you and defragments each hard disk as soon as the anal-
ysis is complete using the mode suited to the degree of fragmentation.
Automatically thorough
You optimize your hard disk performance down to the last detail, even if this lasts a bit longer - regard-
less of the analysis result.
Automatically fast
You would like to save time and defragment each hard disk particularly quickly, regardless of the
degree of fragmentation.
