    HDD Optimization problem


    Hi, On my Windows 10 system I have an SSD, a reserved for system HDD and another HDD (F) where I store most of my games. Basically automatic weekly optimization is scheduled, but I just checked the hard drive (F) and it showed me 12% fragmentation saying "needs optimization". I run optimization manually, but it still shows me the same 12% of fragmentation and suggesting optimization. Is it a problem with a disk or a bug in Windows optimization?

    :)

    Win 10 Disk Optimization program doesn't work.

    Neither method corrected anything. SSD does not allow "Analyze.. HDD does. HDD Optimizes on schedule.. SDD doesn't. No problem with this until after the Anniversary update.

    Win 10 Disk Optimization program doesn't work.

    After the Anniversary upgrade, Disk Optimization does not optimize per it's schedule. My C Drive is an SSD, my Data D: Drive is an HDD. the HDD optimizes automatically, as per the schedule. The C: Drive does not. It just says "OK" and the date it last
    optimized. Also, "Analyze" is greyed out for the SSD, so I can't analyze. It is not greyed out for the D: HDD.

    Can someone explain what is happening?

    I think it's a proper data partition, whatever that means. Anyway I've sorted it out, run early today normal windows optimization tool again and now it managed to defrag it.

    By "Proper" I mean not a restore or a partition like that that shouldn't have a letter at all.

    No, no, it's normal disk, I have others, one system reserved and another recovery, there I'm unable to optimize at all, and as far as I know it's normal
