UltraDefrag

Quote

UltraDefrag is powerful Open Source defragmentation tool for Windows NT. It is very fast, because the defragmenting is done by kernel-mode driver. They are three interfaces to them: graphical, console and native. The GUI is very useful, because it represents your filesystem visually as a color coded cluster map. The console is another option for those that prefer the command line. It is also allows you to run UltraDefrag from the task scheduler and scripts. Finally, the native executable will run at boot time in a manner similar to chkdsk.

The design of UltraDefrag is very simple. There are no skins and other unnecessary stuff. It is a small and powerful program!

I have created a custom Inno installer for this program, since the original installer meshes up file associations a bit. What's even worse it writes the driversettings to all ControlSet keys, in stead of just the CurrentControlSet key.

I also tried moving the default install location away from the Windows directory, but this setting is hardcoded inside the program. I have disabled the creation of report files when defragmenting drives, but this setting can be enabled in the GUI program.
A shortcut is created inside the Common Administrative Tools menu.

Install command:

ultradefrag310.exe /VERYSILENT /NORESTART

Download: ultradefrag310.exe

With UltraDefrag 3.1.0 you can configure UltraDefrag from within the program. This is not enabled by default.
