  1. Hi Cicely, thanks for your quick answer ! That's quite a lot of information the tool gathered, can you please post the email address where to upload that zip-file to ? I'm hesitant to upload that data to the forum here as an attachment I believe I figured out (just now) what that issue was (and it defragmentated successfully !) There's an icon (or quick launcher) in the notification area that gets launched during Windows startup When starting up SD4 from there via right click -> Open Smart Defrag and attempting to defragment things it simply launches and "does" things but not doesn't really seem able to do anything at all after clicking on the Desktop icon -> it requests adminstrator rights (Do you want to allow the following programs to make changes to the computer ?) windows key -> (arrow down) -> typing in Smart -> clicking in Smart Defrag 4 -> it requests adminstrator rights, too When using Smart Defrag 4 after it had been launched in that way - it seems to offer results/gets the job done :) Meanwhile Smart Defrag 3 did the job (yesterday, CET), so I'll look for way to get some additional fragments on M:\ drive (where the game data, ... is) to get Smart Defrag 4 to a test there also was an mp3 left with one fragment and that got defragmented by Smart Defrag 4 after being launched with the elevated rights Thanks !
  2. no edit possible anymore ? Smart Defrag 3 provides the same analyzed data, running on account with administrator privileges (Windows default) with maximum UAC security level applied SD3 requests administrator rights during launch, SD4 does not (?) maybe it's an issue with windows and permissions that disk management isn't possible without requesting higher privileges ?
  3. Great and welcome update ! Thumbs up I'm glad that you give WindowsApps defragmentation a bigger focus (which means that defragmentation on that point takes somewhat longer though - but every speedup of Windows 7, 8, 8.1 is highly welcome) The last real speed improvement I saw using defrag programs, coming from Windows XP was on Windows Vista (if I remember correctly) - every defrag program I used on Windows 7, 8, 8.1 so far - either seemed to make no (noticable) change at all or things worse, with the consequence that startup times increased [WD Black Hdd, unfortunately no SSD here] Smart Defrag 4 looks promising :-) 2 Points that needs your closer attention: - Smart Defrag -> Defrag and Prioritize Files (Slow) seems to make some change - Fragmentation Rate before and after are the same though ? (prior and after job -> Analyze) - Game Defrag -> seems to work fine with supported games ? (e.g. Mass Effect 3); but it doesn't seem to do anything when manually adding a game such as e.g. Dragon Age Inquisition (DragonAgeInquisition.exe); might be related to "Defrag and Prioritize Files (Slow)" ? - Defrag and Fully Optimize seems to make some change - Defrag and Fast Optimize also seems to make some change - Defrag Only also seems to make some change that's all for now :idea: edit: the troubling data (mostly game data, some large videos, music) ist on a partition separate from the windows partition (976 GB, 818 GB free) Fragmentation seems to stay constantly at 2,59% Fragments of Dragon Age Inquisition 4064 [which is of most concern] I'll see what data Smart Defrag 3 provides
