Re: [MCE] Defrag Problem
said by jaceg  :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. |

Brockville, ON | Try re-registering the atl.dll first as follows:
Start > Run > regsvr32 atl.dll > OK
Start > Run > regsvr32 dfrgsnap.dll > OK
Start > Run > regsvr32 dfrgui.dll > OK
Restart the computer. |

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. |
