FYI, if you have a solid state hard drive it is recommended not to run defrag. First of all it isn't necessary on a SSD and secondly, it prolongs the life of the hard drive if you don't run defrag. -----Original Message----- From: David Ferrin Sent: Sunday, January 06, 2013 8:54 AM To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] defragging I forgot that I wrote that, there is either too much on the server or my memory is going bad.

From: David Ferrin Daily Tip: Disk Cleanup Defragmenting your computer periodically can greatly enhance the computer's performance. While helpful, all defragmenting does is tidy up what is on your computer; to get rid of unnecessary files such as temporary Internet files and whatever is in your Recycling Bin, run Disk Cleanup as well. Think of it this way: Defragmenting sweeps the floor and Disk Cleanup takes out the trash. Click Start, Control Panel, Performance And Maintenance (in Category view), and Free Up Space On Your Hard Disk. The Disk Cleanup will run automatically. Once the analysis is complete, simply follow the prompts. David Ferrin Take care.
