Defragment your hard drive with Ashampoo Magical Defrag 2

Screengrab_19 When you write files to your hard drive, these files should be stacked on your drive incrementally after the next file. However, this doesn't always happen and files are stored all over your drive, meaning that it has to work even harder when you start an application at a later date. This is called fragmentation and a fragmented hard drive takes longer to start, longer to load applications and seems slower. Your whole PC seems more sluggish, as a result.

Ashampoo Magical Defrag 2 resides in the background and will slowly defragment your hard drive. This works by relocating blocks of data so they are in one continuous block. If your drive is really badly fragmented, and it's a large drive, you may need to leave your drive defragmenting, overnight. Download Ashampoo Magical Defrag 2.
