Disk Defragmentation Upgraded

Microsoft are working very hard to make sure the upcoming Windows 7 operating system is the complete package, and here is another example that MS are really striving to gain back Windows users.

Windows 7 Disk Defragmentation has been upgraded and improved in many ways, for years now most desktop users have had to use 3rd party software applications such as o&o defrag and many other titles to help keep their Microsoft Windows based desktop running nice and smooth.

One of the main improvements is the new GUI “graphical user interface” Windows vista was very limited in terms of user effects over the Defragmentation process with Windows 7 the user now has a lot more control and information about the status of the hard drives.

Microsoft have also addressed the “Cancel” problem that rendered many hard drives needing a format, you are now able to cancel the operation during a defrag without causing any physical damage or file structure damage. Windows 7 will set a new standard in desktop computing.

Below are some screenshots of the new Windows 7 Defrag system:
