Defrag Message

I went to run a defrag a few minutes ago, I received this message and defrag wouldn't load.

What caused this and how do I fix it so I can defrag my HDs?

Try the following to re-register the files for XP defrag:

Start > Run > regsvr32 dfrgsnap.dll

Start > Run > regsvr32 dfrgui.dll

Restart the computer (it may not be necessary to restart the computer)

Thanks for the suggestion, but none of that worked, I got these:

What else ya got?

Re: [MCE] Defrag Problem

Did you try reinstalling the application as listed in the link I posted?

"Try running the disk defragment again and it should work. If not, you can try re-installing the application by going to the C:\Windows\inf directory and locating a file called dfrg.inf. Right click that file and select Install and this will re-install the disk defragmenting tool."

What link? And I went to the directory you posted and checked out that file. No dice, I still get the error I posted in my opening post.

Edit: Saw the link finally. I'll try it and see.

Two: Still no dice.

Not using it for a long time? The installation/uninstallation of a third party program may have affected the registration of the files. Third party defrag programs such as Diskeeper sometimes cause the issue with XPs defrag.

That's funny. Cause guess what I uninstalled a few days ago before trying the standard windows defrag?

Thanks for everything.
