I'm runing xp pro and every time i try to defrage drive C: I get the error message "The scan has been canceled because an error occured in file C:\Recycled\Dc13.dll" I've searched for the Dll but none found, the recycle bin is apparently empty even after "show all hidden files and folders" Any help into this frustrating matter would be greatly appreciated.
 
You've got a corrupt file, Dc13.dll
Your Event Viewer probably has a mention of running the
Chkdsk utility.

Run Error checking.
Then reboot and empty the Recycle Bin.
Then try running defrag again.
=====================

Scandisk is now Error-checking (chkdisk).
Open My Computer, double-click the My Computer icon on the desktop.
Right click your hard drive | Properties.
On the Tools tab, under Error-checking, click Check Now.
Under Check disk options, check both boxes.
You have to reboot for Error-checking to run.

For a peek at the log.
Start | Run | Type: eventvwr | OK
Look in Application | Listed as Information
under Winlogon, Event 1001

[To see the files listed in the Recycled Folder

Go to Start/Run and type in: CMD. At the prompt type in: cd\ [enter] then
cd Recycled [enter] then dir [enter].
They will listed similar to this: Dc25.url, Dc26.lnk, etc. If Windows is
installed on D:\, it will then be listed as Dd25, etc. The number represents
the number of file deleted.

A hidden folder is created on each volume that has the recycle bin enabled
named Recycled. Any deleted files are moved to this folder and renamed to:
C<original drive letter><number file deleted>.<original extension> and the
original full name and path stored in a mapping file Info2. For example the
file name: C:\www.dbknox_faq.com\index.html would become Dc1.html (if it
was the first file deleted on the partition).

When the Recycle Bin becomes full, Windows starts deleting files to make
room for newly deleted files. These files are still recoverable until you
'empty' the Recycle Bin.]
