Defraggler from Piriform is an easy-to-use alternative defragmenting utility to the one built-in with Windows. This utility displays the number of fragmented files and the percentage of the entire drive that is fragmented. A mere click in the 'View files' button shows the files presently fragmented and one has the option of defragmenting particular files. Defragmenting option is available in two methods-quick and regular. With the Quick option, only the fragmented files are worked upon, while the regular option defragments the entire drive. You can choose to move files of certain capacities or types in order to speed-up the defragmenting process. Particular critical files can also be excluded from the defragmenting options. Scheduling options are available where the drive can be defragmented at particular intervals. The utility has a downside-batch defragmenting is not possible.

VERDICT: Free alternative defragmenting tool for Windows.

FOR: Ease of use, powerful.

AGAINST: Batch defragmenting not available.
