Anyway to schedule defrag?

[powerMarkymark]

Would like to schedule a weekly defrag of my C drive, would prefer to use WinXP Disk Defragmenter as I have had very bad experience with 3rd party App. ie: Diskeeper.

Well, the defragmenter in XP is diskeeper. Are you having a problem wuth it?

I tried to schedule mine, no dice. I know you can write a script to do it, but I can't write scripts sorry.

I generally use Diskeeper without any problems. What version of Diskeeper are you using/have?

This is what I do:

Make a text file and name it "DefragAll.bat" or something. Add these lines to the file...

defrag C: -v
defrag D: -v
defrag E: -v

.. for every harddrive/partition you want to defragment. [Tada, you just wrote a script! (actually, a batch file - close enough)] Now setup your Task Scheduler to run this file as often as you wish (I do it monthly). Problem solved!
