Disk Defrag
Does anyone have any thoughts as to why Disk Defrag only works in Safe Mode
on my PC? Is there some registry setting I can change? |

The only problem is the icons get mixed up, but if you download icon restore, it is only a mouse click to restore them, available at: http://downloads-zdnet.com.com/3000-...ml?tag=lst-0-2 Also the ME defrag is a superior product, available at: http://potentproducts.com/download/ms/windowsme.html -- So long and thanks for all the fish. |

Disk Defrag
This is because of the application running in your System Tray, which is
continusly accessing your Disk and intruppting the Defrag. You should close all of them before running Disk Defrag in Normal mode. Also press CTRL+ALT+DEL key once and task all the program except Explorer and SysTray. Hope this help, let us know!
