How can I see my DEFRAG?
Okay, I just upgraded to a new VISTA box, and have found that my defrag is just a stupid gump that says, "This may take a few minutes to hours" with the little VISTA swirly spinning around so I know it's working. How can I switch something so I can watch the progress like on Windows 95/98/Millenium/XP??
And before I get jumped on - I DO actually have a life. There's just something comforting with the ability to be able to see what's going on.

You cant unfortunately but you can download a free and powerful disk defrag utility.

I too miss the graphic display in Vista. I like to be able to see the defrag progress. Besides the Vista defragger is too slow as well. Unfortunately you cant get a visual display in it. I have switched to a much better defragger, Diskeeper09.Its also very easy to use as it can be set to defrag automatically in the background, has a nice GUI, defrags under low free space and defrags system files. For Vista, it has a VSS defrag option that prevents unnecessary shadow copy activity.
Try the 30 day trial if you wish
