Automatically defrag drives with a new context menu item! |
In Category: Registry
Create a new Registry import file named context_defrag.inf in Notepad (be sure to save with it with the Save as type set to All Files and not Text Documents) and place the following text inside: ; context_defrag.INF ; Adds Defrag to the right click context menu in Windows XP [version] signature=\"$CHICAGO$\" [DefaultInstall] AddReg=AddMe [AddMe] HKCR,\"Drive\\Shell\\Defrag\\command\",,,\"DEFRAG.EXE %1\" Then, right-click and choose Install. This will add a context menu to XP that allows you to automatically defrag drives, using the command line version of the built-in defragmentation utility. To use it, navigate to a drive in My Computer, right-click, and choose Defrag. A command line window will appear, and that drive will be defragged. When it\'s complete, the window just disappears. UPDATE: To remove this functionality, Open regedit.exe and navigate to the following location: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\\Drive\\shell\\ Then delete the Defrag folder and close Regedit.
