Improve the speed of system disk defragmentation

How to improve the speed of operating system disk defragmentation 5 steps.

1. Keep enough disk space

We will find that if the remaining space of the hard disk is too small, the running application will be slow and the disk defragmentation will be difficult. get on. Therefore, for smaller disk partitions, it is best to keep more than 15% of available space; for larger disk partitions, it is best to keep more than 5% of available space; for boot partitions, at least 40MB of available space. In addition, in the process of using the computer, we should release the wasted disk space in time, such as frequently emptying the recycle bin, deleting the history after surfing the Internet, and deleting temporary folders and files.

2. Modify the registry to automatically turn off the screen saver

Before performing the defragmentation work, first turn off the screen saver, otherwise the disk defragmenter will start repeatedly, but if It is sometimes cumbersome to manually close the application. Here I tell you a little trick, that is, by automatically modifying the registry to achieve automatic shutdown of the screen saver. The specific steps are as follows: First, use the regedit command on the command line to open the registry, locate "HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftware MicrosoftwindowsCurrentVersionApplets", and then find out if there is a "Defrag" key in this path. If not, create a new one. By default, the system defaults. Have this key value. Create a new primary key named "Settings" under the "Defrag" key, then create a primary key named "DisableScreenSaver" under the newly created primary key, and finally change its default string value to "YES". can. The screen protection will be automatically masked each time you run Disk Defragmenter, and it will be automatically restored after the operation is completed.

3. Close the application

Since some programs may need to read the data on the hard disk repeatedly during the running process, this will affect the normal operation of the defragmenter. Stable situations can even lead to crashes. Therefore, in order to speed up the defragmentation of disk defragmentation, it is best to turn off each running program.

4.Adjust parameters or use special software

If the capacity of the hard disk or the capacity of the partition is small, it will take too long to defragment it, but for some stuffing For large hard disks and partitions of data, a long wait process is required. Therefore, when we are sorting these large-capacity hard disks or partitions, we can take the following two measures: First, you can turn off the optimization parameters in the finishing program attached to the windows9x system itself, which can speed up the defragmentation, but this method The effect may not be obvious. Alternatively, use a dedicated defragmentation tool to organize the hard disk or partition. For example, the Vop99 software I currently use is very fast. If we use Vop99 to defragment the disk every day, the disk will be optimized in a matter of minutes and the system will remain optimal at all times. I recommend that you use Windows's scheduled task program to set Vop99 to run automatically at least once a week. The latest download address of Vop99 is /html/download/soft/20081104/2714.html.

5. Changing the location of the temporary folder

When surfing the Internet using IE, in order to spend less money to access more information, users often take offline browsing. Make an access. Each time you go online, the IE browser will leave a lot of temporary files in the C:windowsTemporary Internet Files directory. If we frequently surf the Internet, Internet Explorer may generate a large number of temporary files in this directory. It will also frequently read and write the hard disk and generate a lot of fragmentation, which will affect the access speed. To avoid this, we can also assign temporary directories to other partitions. The method is: first create a temporary file storage directory in the D drive, select "Control Panel" * "Internet Options", click the "Settings" button in the opened dialog box, and then click the "Move Folder" button, Select the corresponding directory in the D drive.
