Windows 10: Defrag

Having set win 10 defrag to work on a daily bases - it's not working. Gone three days now and no optimization. Anyone come across this? or know of a fix.

Thanks for getting back.

But in win 10 there is not an option to do what you suggest.

If you print in defrag here are the options:

defrag

defraggler

defrag my computer

defrag MAC

defrag computer free

defrag software

defraggler free downloads

defraggler fire hippo

Please advise

 

How do I speed up my computer?

Update: did defrag and it says 1% fragmented with defrag done (3% after analysis after defrag). Is this good?

 

Probably unnecessary to defrag. Windows just more or less manages this stuff on its own.

 

Thats the problem windows is not taking care of optimizing my SSD drives.

 

You dont really want to defrag an SSD, certainly not daily.

 

Defragging SSD and Flash drives will wear them out faster. I do not suggest doing this. Defrag mechanical HDD's only

 

Windows 10 defrag.exe will defragment HDD, optimize SSD (issue trim) and perform slab consolidation on VHD. SSDs are also automatically defragmented monthly if you have system restore configured. Source

@no1yak - what does it say under task scheduler?





Has your PC been plugged in, turned on and not being used overnight?

 

X2.

 

Task manager was not configured under defrag. I have now set defrag to run once a month via the task manager. Strange that the setting in optimize schedule didn't work. By the way I'm fully aware of how win 10 sends the trim command to SSD's and it's only my spinners that get defraged.

Thanks for the response.

Pete.
