I hope I can word this correctly

I am running W7 32bit

It is a home computer

I Defrag once a week.

I have defrag it sometimes up to 6 times to bring it back to a 0%

I am update?

Should I uninstall and reinstall the program

My Security is Kaspersky and that is up to date.

When I download a program I always put Kaspersky into "Pause"

Your help would be greatly appreciated

Keith

Now I am completely confused .

I did exactly what you told me to do and double checked it

This are the results

I only see one line Top line of the "squares" graph now instead of all of it.

Fragmented Files 56
Total Fragments 192

After the Defrag

FF 49
TF 177

0%

Turn off and a restart

FF 77
TF 190

Where did all they come from

In the files there is a huge list

What do I do now?

Analyze, click on the File list tab, right click and Save List to Text File.
Delete any sensitive information, copy the list and place in the code box, and post. Posted Image

I have no idea what you are talking about sorry.

Analyze, Where do I find that ?

File list tab,  Where is that

Save List to Text File.  Same again

Delete any sensitive information, copy the list and place in the code box, and post.    Same again

<>   I cannot find that either.

Remember I am using W7 32bit

Instead of defragging the whole drive I defrag only the files. Posted Image It's very fast.
Just tick ☑Filename and defrag.
The result is always zero frag and an empty list. Try it. If afterward you still have a list and wish to post it, these images will guide you.

Posted Image
Only if your list is very long, please use the code box <> in the forum Reply to this topic panel to conserve space. Posted Image If the list is short don't bother with the code box. :)

Keith
you answered your own question "where did they all come from" with "turn off and a restart"
windows is like a messy child, defragging is cleaning up for the child, the second you are done (and often while you do) the child starts to play and leaves things places.

you are fretting over a small irrelevant difference between 49/177 and 77/190
ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION
DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.
Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark)
ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

I think you have solved the problem "dont worry about it"

That is exactly what I will do.

Thank you all
