[QUOTE="Digerati, post: 608108, member: 59833"] That would be fine if it was needed. But again, you don't need real-time defragging. That is Auslogics marketing hype - nothing more. If more frequent defragging was needed, Microsoft would have scheduled automatic defragging to daily or even hourly. Instead, by default, it is just once a week, if needed. The rest of the time, the feature is not sitting there wasting RAM, CPU cycles and disk resources. And since Windows defragging is scheduled to run when the computer is not otherwise being used, who cares if it not as quick? It just does not matter. I am NOT saying Auslogics is a bad program. I am just saying you don't need it. Window - especially Windows 10, knows how to manage its disks just fine.
