Hi capadac

This is usually due to running on batteries and the default setting.

Hi tiger

Hard to guess from the amount of information :-)

How much free space do you have in percentage please.

How fragmented is your disk?

Are you running as administrator?

Do you have many large pictures and videoes on your disk?

How are your settings in SD?

Did you unblock the program before installing?

Did you install "over the top"?

What OS do you have?

What firewall and settings do you have?

What antivirus and settings do you have?

What services have you got - at what settings ?

Cheers

I would try in safe mode with no background stuff running, could be as mentioned above a large file blocking progress.

 

also run chkdsk for duff sectors.

 

run ccleaner to free up any clutter.

 

shortage of disk space/memory?

I have the same problem with version 1.2. The disk map is blank and shows zero for both total files and total defragmented files. My file system is NTFS, I am not constrained for disk space, not running on batteries, have tried running with fire wall and antivirus off, have uninstalled and reinstalled but it still won't function. I'm unsure what is meant by "large" pictures and videos. My operating system is XP with service pack 2. My running services are numerous but I have no indication of a services, software or hardware conflict.

Auto defrag starts but stops immediately as does manual defrag or manual analyze.

Hi sailfree,

 

Is your "Skip files larger than xGB (xxxMB)" checkbox checked in "Defragment" section of Options ?

 

If it is checked, try with unchecking the checkbox.

 

Cheers.
