Defragging and SBuilderX

Hi all.

Both FSX and SBuilderX will leave your files in a moderately fragmented state on your harddrive. This can also happen to other file-intensive FSX applications.

Contig is a program that defrags files on a file by file basis... and allows whole folders to be defragged as contigous files.

Here's a batch file to defrag FSX:

Code: Select all

contig.exe -v -s "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\*.*"
pause
Here's another batch file to defrag SBuilderX:

Code: Select all

contig.exe -v -s "C:\Program Files\SBuilderX\*.*"
pause
This will file-defrag the entire C: drive:

Code: Select all

contig.exe -v -s C:\*.*
pause
I've been using it, and it helps. :)
