Yours looks good enough, too. We will never be totally unfragmented,
because Win98 stores files differently from Win95 owing to Optimization
during Defrag. But that is as it should be.

One thing that could be bloating your unmoveables is Thumbnail View.
Each folder in which you have it turned on will have a Thumbs.db file
holding the pictures. Turn off the view, & the .db will go away. (Of
course, you may miss them.)
"START, Programs, MS-DOS Prompt"
C:\>DIR C: /ASH /S /V
....snip Size

Total files listed:
9 file(s) 435,831 bytes
4 dir(s) 6,461.88 MB free
Also, you will get more (& big ones), if you have turned on Thumbnails.
THUMBS DB 89,600 12-14-03 2:36a 12-14-03 HS
THUMBS DB 219,648 07-01-03 10:51p 12-16-03 HS A
THUMBS DB 48,640 06-22-03 11:08p 12-16-03 HS A
Thumbs.db appears in every folder in which Thumbnail View is turned on,
it seems. (Now, I have turned it off, & they have disappeared.)

Thanks or Good Luck,
There may be humor in this post, and,
Naturally, you will not sue,
should things get worse after this,
