Auslogics Disk Defrag for Windows

Auslogics Disk Defrag is a free disk defragmentation tool that can help optimize your PC’s performance by rearranging files on your hard drive. The program offers four defragmentation modes: a quick mode, an optimization mode, a space-saving mode, and a full mode. You can also customize the defragmentation process by choosing which file types to include or exclude from the process.

Four distinct algorithms are utilized by Auslogics Disk Defrag Ultimate to strategically position your files. Keep in mind that your hard drive will always operate at maximum speed. To determine which defragmentation algorithm is right for your PC, use the Wizard.

In addition to defragging, Auslogics Disk Defrag Ultimate can stop future fragmentation by leaving free space after files you specify. In order to defragment your hard drive quickly and safely, you can configure the program to delete temporary files and check for errors. When you’re at your computer, you can choose to either put limits on the defragmentation process’ ability to use system resources or remove them altogether.

Detailed reports and performance charts make it simple to monitor upgrades in speed and the health of the disks. Previously, Windows would lock certain system files, but now you can defragment everything.

Key Features

Modern hard disks can be quickly optimized using Auslogics Disk Defrag Ultimate. Defragmenting only the relevant files rather than the entire hard drive will maximize the performance of your expensive hardware investments while saving you time.

4 Optimization Algorithms

When you wish to have quicker access to commonly used files, utilize the Optimize by Access Time approach. Use the Optimize by Prefetch Layout method to accelerate system startup and application startup. Select Optimize by Change Time if all you want to do is stop additional file fragmentation. Finally, the Optimize by Disk Zone technique enables you to explicitly designate which file types or even specific files should be written into the quicker section of the disk.

Offline Defragmentation

Prior to the operating system loading, offline defragmentation is carried out during system boot. Using this tool, you may simplify the MFT files, Paging files, Hybernation files, and Windows Registry files. Windows will become more responsive and operate more quickly overall if system files are defragmented.

Free Space Consolidation

Use the Free Space Consolidation technique to significantly cut down file fragmentation. This optimization technique combines a sizable continuous block of free storage space. This makes it feasible to write new files without fragmentation. Note that the application defragments files in addition to consolidating free space. However, you can choose not to defragment files in the software to hasten the consolidation process.

Advanced Defrag Algorithms

Defrag algorithms in Auslogics Disk Defrag Ultimate were created specifically for SSD and VSS-enabled disks. The VSS defrag algorithm aims to reduce the increase of the VSS storage area brought on by file movement during defragmentation. The SSD defrag technique significantly lowers the number of write operations required during defragmentation, extending the drive’s useful life.

Single-file or folder defragmentation

You can defragment a single file, a number of files, or an entire folder with Auslogics Disk Defrag Ultimate. This option is helpful when only a few files need to be defragmented in order to speed up a program, and the full hard disk does not need to be defragmented.

Advanced Scheduler

Alternatively, you can utilize the Auto Defragmentation mode or schedule the application to execute exactly at the designated time. The latter enables the program to defragment and optimize your disks in real-time, ensuring that file fragmentation is eliminated as soon as it happens.
