How To Defragment Hard Drives Using CMD

Today I am sharing the easiest method with you to defrag. your hard drive. Though you can perform this task with third party applications also, but why don’t do it a simple way.

Here is a simple method to defragment your drives using Command Prompt :

1. Click on Start and then select Run, type CMD in it and hit enter.

2. Suppose I want to defrag my C drive, then in the command box I’ll write

defrag C: -f -v

and hit enter. The defragmentation will start.
