Automatic Defragmentation schedule

If you have been using a computer for a long time or even for a year, chances are that you have definitely heard about defragmentation. Yes it is that process which is extremely essential and should be performed at least once a month, if not every two weeks. It is also that process which we forget to perform each time and the hard disk keeps getting fragmented and thus becomes slower. Fragmentation occurs if the operating system is unable to allocate a contiguous memory location to a file, which is then stored in smaller pieces across the hard disk. The process of defragmentation tries to counter this by bringing together all file fragments and also grouping the free space together through compaction. The disk defragmenter that comes with Windows 7 is great but lacks the shedule and automation features. You can use third party software for the same, but what is the need if the inbuilt software can do the job.

So, let us see how to automate and schedule defragmentation in Windows 7.

Of course, the virus also has a way of spreading process, this is the key to tackle spread of viral infection. Viruses typically spread when autorun is active in our external storage media (flash, external hard drive, etc.), but every time we open the data in external storage media autorun computer automatically becomes active.
