okay i'm trying to figure out why you are having memory leaks all over if you open system properties open the start menu rightclick on computer and hit properties on the left pane click on advanced system settings on the advanced tab click settings under performance go to the tab that says data execution prevention. i want to see what it shows you.

Hmm looks correct.. you know I wonder if that's normal for Windows 7 lol why I say that is because I would get that when doing a chkdsk /f on a disk.

This is a dangerous tool  :teeth:

Do not use the tool if do not want to lose data.
The application causes high  memory leaks, crashes during defragmentation OR analyze partition and cause corrupted  indexes $I30.

I did the test:

0. I made a backup of data.
1. Disk good. No errors !!! CHKDSK /V /F
2. I analyzed the tool all drives.
3. Memory leak, HANG  of the application.
4. Killing the process. Defraggler64.exe
5. Re-check the CHKDSK /V /F
6. Damage data.
7. Data Restore - from a backup.

Hi, Yes I also notice the index error after running this tool. What is that index error? It is same for all users or it is different for all users. Normally whenever i run chkdsk, the index error on the index no pointed , occurs and since i use chkdsk /r, it will correct it taking some to erase, rebuild etc.

jraju - Do I wrote that I have bad sectors?
No!! :angry:
So why the hell do I use /R (which also checks the free space) and wait 8-16 hours to complete each scan ?!
This is ridiculous!
advanced scanning methods, does not require /R
super-fast scans can detect serious errors of sectors and, if necessary, use /R
but never in my life have I had to use /R to recover bad OR unstable sectors...

Hi, Makinero,
                  I was not giving you solution. I ask why such index error happens and i had the same experience. Now you understand.

 I don't know why people bother with 3rd party defrag programs when Windows own is more than capable and always achieves 0% fragmentation for me whereas a couple I've tried never got that far down.

Most of the tools (known to me) requires a lot of space (10% free space) to defragment MFT (and other system files), also and user files require space on the disk.
I have too much data (and know somewhere it should be placed), other utility requires less space on your hard drive (consolidation of free space.
fast defragmentation of files, other technology to optimize file)
Even if defragment files on their space will be new fragments (if ever something save and modify data on the disk)
Best preventing fragment  (inteligent write) http://www.condusiv.com/defrag/intelliwrite/

You still need a min of free space for Windows to work, but installing 3rd party programs is going to reduce that free space further and Virtual Memory relies on free space as well - but the choice is yours.

Smart Defrag 4.3 (freeware)
defragment the MFT, pagefile and hibernation files at boot time.
I use the system on the SSD drive, but the data stored on the HDD.
The average size of each file is 1MB - Small file on disk reduce the effectiveness
  and performance. For me, it does not much matter,  I am not a maniac, I do not use RAID only office work, daily work.
