Defragment Menu |
Lists algorithms available in this version of iDefrag.
Lists class set specifications. iDefrag searches for these within its executable bundle as well as in the following directories and their subdirectories:
/Library/Application Support/iDefrag
~/Library/Application Support/iDefrag
Please do not edit class set files provided with the program. In particular, the built-in class set is very important and must not be touched unless you are absolutely certain you know what you are doing… a syntax error or a mistake in that file could cause data loss!
Check the selected volume for errors. This feature
uses fsck_hfs
, which is the same tool used by Disk Utility.
If it finds a problem with the disk, it will then allow you to repair
it, provided the disk can be unmounted.
Start (or stop) defragmentation. This option will only be enabled if you have selected a writable disk that can be unmounted, or if you have chosen an on-line defragmentation algorithm.
Use this to pause defragmentation. Whilst paused, if you are using an offline aglorithm, you will not be able to access the disk, but you will have 100% access to all other computer resources.
Use this option to defragment the currently selected file. Note that this option comes with the same restrictions that the Quick (on-line) algorithm has, which means you cannot defragment system files this way or files that are in use. If the option is grayed out it means that the file cannot be defragmented using this method.
