Windows Forum / Windows Vista / General Topics / May 2008Vista Defragmenter is Missing
Vista's defragmenter has been on my computer since Vista was installed, but recently I tried to defragment my drive, and got a message saying the program wasn't installed. I think the first time I noticed its absence was right after I replaced my hard drive. The instructions for installing it don't make any sense, looking more like XP instructions than Vista. Any suggestions how I can find and reinstall the Vista defragmenter?

Just replace that 5-year old PC with a newer, bigger, faster one, and you will have far fewer "problems", which aren't caused by Vista, anyway.
