COMPUTER FUNDAMENTALS

Detailed explanation-1: -Disk Defragmenter in Windows rearranges fragmented data so your disks and drives can work more efficiently. Disk Defragmenter runs on a schedule, but you can also analyze and defragment your disks and drives manually.

Detailed explanation-2: -Disk defragmentation helps rearrange the files on the disk to contiguous spaces and thus improve disk performance.

Detailed explanation-3: -Disk defragmentation takes all the pieces of each file, and stores them in one place. It also makes sure programs are each in one place, and that unused space on the hard disk is all together.

Detailed explanation-4: -Those fragmented, individual pieces of data are referred to generally as fragments. Defragmentation, then, is the process of un-fragmenting or piecing together, those fragmented files so they sit closer, physically, on the drive or other media, potentially speeding up the drive’s ability to access the file.
