Hello and thank you all for responding PKCano, Anon, and NetDef. I don’t want to install a defragmentation program just to do this, hoping there was a stand alone program similar to PageDefrag Systernals makes. Systernals does have PageDefrag and a special single file defragmenter program “Contig”, but I did not find anything to deal with a single partition from them. Yes I know fragmentation of such a small rarely used partition is not impeding performance, but I want it 0% fragmented just the same.ĭoes anyone know of a program that would defragment this “system Reserved” partition? The partition is around 100 megs total with 25 megs of data is in it.

Therefore some data is occasionally written to this reserved area. It was 8% prior to the July 2019 updates. I have the partition called “SYSTEM RESERVED” that had been 0% fragmented for years, but has now slowly crept upwards and is currently at 9% fragmented. I do regular maintenance, cleanup and defragmentation. I like to have my computer in good, “spic & span” shape.

PKCano, Microfix, Abbodi86, and NoelC, Canadian Tech, could you give this some thought? Hello, I would like to have some of the Askwoody MVPs and posters take a look at this and maybe come up with an answer.
