Hi Piriform!

I have been using Defraggler and CCleaner for some time now and just recently ran into one problem with Defraggler (the most recent version). Everytime i try to defragment i get a "Defrag Failed" beside status.

I am currently running Vista Business 64-bit SP1 with all the latest updates, etc.

Steps to how i defragment...
-Open up Defraggler
-Click analyze
-Tick off the colomn to defrag ALL files
-Click Defrag

And that's really all there is to it.

Im currently doing the "Defrag Drive" option which i actually did not even know existed and it seems to be working, very slowly.

That's all, thanks.

Hi Jesse,
Others also are experiencing the same thing as you are.
I am using the latest version also but I am only defraging certain selected files and I have no problems.
It also seems to run faster than before.
Some people have had problems with System Volume files.

Your information will be helpful to the "Bug Removers".
Thanks,
:) davey

Can you post a screen shot of the app when 'Defrag Failed' appears?

I have had no problem on my own computer but had problems with two new Vista computers. The large files beginning with a "{" caused a defrag Failed message. By un checking only those files I was able to complete.

I just came to this forum to look up why I was getting this issue.

Defraggler 1.01.073
Vista Ultimate SP1, 32-bit

Intel E2220 @ 3.2 GHz
2 Gigs DDR2 RAM
GeForce 8600 GT
640 Gig WD

I start Defraggler, I click Analyze, I check off All Files, I click Defrag

Defraggler doesn't do anything but say "Defrag Failed".

EDIT, I checked the error log:

[2008-05-28] [02:34:22.099] 015f0 1 CDefragmentation::DefragPath#787 Path: "C:\Windows\System32\wbem\Logs\WMITracing.log"

It seems that instead of skipping locked files, it is just giving up and stopping the whole defrag. I guess I will downgrade back to the previous version until this is fixed. :(
