Defragmentation reverses this by rearranging data and speeding up access times dramatically. This not only saves the user time, it also reduces wear on hard disks and extends their life expectancy. Defragmentation can even make the difference if you lose important data because chances of full recovery are better on a defragmented disk.<\/p>\n<h3>First steps with O&amp;O Defrag<\/h3>\n<p>After the first start of O&amp;O Defrag you can get your license by clicking on &#8220;I would like to enter my license number or purchase a license&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to its new intelligent feature, Install &amp; That\u2019s All, O&amp;O Defrag automatically configures the best settings and defragmentation methods for a computer and its hardware.

Compare the hard drive or SSD to a shoebox in which you keep lots of notes (the files). Windows tears up any new notes and simply throws the snippets into the shoe box. If you then want to access a file again, Windows must first find the \u201cfile snippets\u201d and then glue them together before the file can finally be loaded. This costs time and vastly reduces performance. How does O&amp;O Defrag help? O&amp;O Defrag tidies up this shoebox by combining the snippets of a file and writing them one after the other to the hard drive or SSD. In addition, the files are reorganized so that the access times when loading are minimized. This saves you time and protects your data volumes. If you use O&amp;O Defrag regularly, the access speed and the overall performance of your Windows system will increase noticeably. And so that you never have to worry about \u201cfile snippets\u201d again, O&amp;O Defrag can also be run completely automatically in the background. Simply easy Everyone should have a fast computer. That\u2019s why we made O&amp;O Defrag 26 so easy that anyone can use it. The new modern view does not require complicated settings. No difficult decisions like choosing the best defragmentation strategy for your PC. O&amp;O Defrag takes care of everything itself. All you have to do is choose whether you want to start O&amp;O Defrag yourself manually or whether you want it to take care of everything automatically.

This indicates the \u201chealth status\u201d of hard disks, SSDs and RAIDs whenever there is any problem. Such a problem could be a high temperature or an error reported by the drive itself. If there is anything unusual going on, a message will be displayed in the Windows Action Center.<\/p>\n<h3>Drive activity display in the Windows taskbar&lt;<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-813\" src=\"https:\/\/start.oo-software.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ood25_deskband_en.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"460\" height=\"40\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In the new O&amp;O Defrag version, read and write accesses on the computer will be more visible.

O&amp;O Defrag creates a detailed status report about the fragmentation level once the analysis has been completed:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Select the drive you want to have analyzed from the list of drives.<\/li>\n<li>Start the <strong>Analysis<\/strong> using the Ribbon bar or the right-click menu.<\/li>\n<li>Depending on the size of the drive, the analysis can take some time.

The first defragmentation usually requires the most time because O&amp;O Defrag has to check your entire system and move all files into their optimal position. We therefore recommend an initial defragmentation with the STEALTH or SPACE methods. Defragment single drives:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Select the drive you wish to defragment from the drive list.<\/li>\n<li>After clicking the Start button in the ribbon bar, defragmentation will begin using the default SPACE method for HDDs and SOLID\/Complete for SSDs. If you want to change this method, open the Start button&#8217;s lower menu and select the method you desire.<\/li>\n<li>Depending on the size of your database, defragmentation can take up to several hours.
