Quick overview:
Slumps in speed, slower execution of programs and instability. These are all signs of the constant fragmentation of a hard disk. Most users do not pay attention to this factor and often rely on new hardware, which in turn means a deep dive into their wallets.
Performance losses of up to 50% must be expected with a heavily fragmented hard disk, which makes efficient working almost impossible. Windows 98 offers an integrated defragmentation program which, however, does not work very accurately and quickly. The same application is also available in the successor Windows Me, but it is much more efficient and faster. It is actually possible to use the new defragmentation program with the old Windows 98.
Defragment hard disk faster and more efficiently
1. Get the following file from a researcher with Windows Millennium (from acquaintances or Internet friends) defrag.exewhich is located in the Windows folder.
2. Use this new defragmentation file to overwrite the old one in your Windows folder of Windows 98.
I am probably not allowed to offer the Windows Me Defrag.exe for download for legal reasons, so you will have to help yourself or use www.google.de to search for the file. From now on you can look forward to fast defragmentation.
