Overview
UltraDefrag is a powerful Open Source Defragmentation Software for the Windows Platform. It can defragment any system files including registry hives and paging files. Also one of the main goals of UltraDefrag is doing the job as fast and reliable as possible.
When files consist of many little fragments scattered around the disk the computer needs more mechanical work to read them. Because of that, the disk access becomes slower.
The tool reduces the file fragmentation, thus it makes disk operations faster. Also, the program can optimize a whole disk by placing small files close to each other, sorted by path (or other criteria). After the disk optimization less mechanical work is needed to read groups of small files. This reduces startup times of many applications including web and photo browsers.
In contrast with the most other disk defragmenters, the app can defragment locked files by running during the Windows boot. Actually all files including page and hibernation files can be defragmented there. Also, Ultra Defrag aims to be fast, simple, reliable, and efficient.
UltraDefrag has the following features:
