You want to defrag a harddrive?

Try this:

1. Hold the Windows key and hit "E"
2. In explorer, right click on the hard drive you want to defrag and select "Properties"
3. Go to the "Tools" tab
4. Select "Oprimize and Defragment Drive"

And that should do it!

Note: NEVER run a disk defrag on an SSD.

you can follow neieus but if you want any specific program, take your mouse pointer to top or bottom right corner and click on search charm,
type in any program you want, it will be shown !

The new start window is in the bottom left hand corner. Click and it will take you to the category view. There's a down arrow at the bottom of the Category view. EVERYTHING is in there. If you're still stuck just type "Defrag" in the search charm.
