Vista Defrag only defrags c:\ drive

From what I can see, this Vista Defrag will only defrag c:\ drive. What
about all of the other data drives?

I agree with all of the others. With no way to verify, or manually select,
the individual drives I can see where we will be having data loss without
even seeing any warnings.

Isn't there a way to open a Management Control Panel for some kind of
control over this "foolproof" application?

Thanks

The defragging application will defrag any non-removable drives
automatically.

Windows Vista SP1 allows you to manually select specific partitions or
drives.

Vista works for me. Life is an adventure but there is no GOD.

You need to select manually the drives you want to defrag and one at a time only. If
you have as an example 3 drives (2 internal 1 external even if it is flash drive)
then you need to use defrag 3 times selecting another drive each time
