Do you really want to quickly defragment your drive?, Instead of going through Start menu, programs and etc, use a simple tweak that adds Defrag to the context menu for each hard drive partition.
- Open up regedit.exe through the start menu search or run box, and then navigate to the following key:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell - You need to create a new key under shell called “runas”, and then set the (Default) value to “Defragment”. If you want to hide this menu item behind the Shift key right-click menu, then add a new string called Extended with no value.
- After this, you’ll need to create a key called “command” and set the default value to the following, which is the command to run defrag with the default options but show verbose output:
defrag %1 -v
