We have mentioned the word «for free"Because Defraggler can be obtained under two different modalities, one of them being paid and the other as a" free to use version "; Despite the differences between the two reviews, they keep the same principle that will help us to defragment the hard drive.
The differences that the Defraggler developer has proposed suggest that the paid version has mainly continuous support, something that you will not get with the free version of it. application that will help us to defragment the hard drive; It is for this reason that we have decided to explain in this article, certain tricks and basic principles that you must know to correctly handle the tool in its free version, thereby saving you approximately $ 25.
Download and install Defraggler to defragment the hard drive
The cheats start from the moment you head towards Defraggler's official website, because there you will find two modalities to download the tool, one being paid and the other free version as we have suggested from the beginning. For this last mode of use we must go to the piriform download link, for at the moment it is the one that is enabled. The download will start in a few seconds because the weight of the tool is considerably light.
When you install Defraggler you will find a welcome window where will be proposed to replace certain native operating system services, something that may not be advisable to host to continue maintaining them in the event that we uninstall this tool once we no longer need it.
The image that we have placed in the upper part is a small sample of what you will find in the welcome interface, where we have deactivated certain boxes (which from our point of view) we will not need them.
Afterwards, Defraggler will automatically run, being ready to start defragmenting the hard drive that we want; In the upper part, a list of all the storage units that we have connected to the computer will be shown, which mainly includes hard drives and also USB sticks or micro SD memories. We will only have to select one of them for the process to start.
Right there you can admire in different columns important information for us before starting to defragment the hard disk, although initially Defraggler will suggest that no storage unit has been processed for the moment.
Each time we select any of the units shown in the upper part, in the area at the bottom we will be given a preliminary analysis of the state in which said selection is located. In general, there could appear a small message with green letters indicating that the hard disk is in "good condition".
In the middle area you can place a large number of small boxes or cells with different colors of shades of gray; that is the area that must be processed in order to defragment the hard drive properly.
At the bottom you have two buttons to use immediately, one of them being «Analyze»And that it will give us a report on the status of our entire hard drive. If the tool considers it necessary (when there is a high percentage of fragmentation) it will tell us to use the next button, which refers to the task we are trying to perform.
You can use the tab that says «Unit Map»So that you can correctly identify the colors that will appear in the process.
If you go to the tab STATUS You will be able to know a few details of the storage unit that you have chosen, being for example the capacity, its speed in RPM, the type of connector it uses, the brand, the serial number and a piece of information that perhaps we have never taken into account, same that will refer to the time of use that said hard disk currently has, something that could help us if we are about to acquire a used one and we want to guess the state in which it can be found due to its age.
