My defragmentation is not working??
I recieve message saying to run CHKDSK or SCANDISK on (C:)
then try again,but don,t know how to do that!!HELP!!
 
Hi Anne,

Start/run cmd

Run "chkdsk C: /r"

You will be prompted to dismount the drive, but as the drive is in use you
cannot. You will then be prompted to schedule the chkdsk to be run upon a
system restart - follow the prompts, then reboot.
