Hello Walter,
I apologize for the inconvenience. Disk defragmentation is a feature which helps us to store all the files in a single location to increase the speed of the search and performance of the computer. The scan depends on the number of files located in the drives and the disk space. Normally this process would take some time as it scans the entire disk to defragment the files.
I suggest you cancel the process of defragmentation on AVG PC Tuneup main interface and right click on the settings icon (maintenance feature) skip the defragmentation option. Now, go to All functions feature( last component) -> Hard Disk -> Defragment Disk. Select the driver and choose "run a fast defragmentation". It will show you the time frame of the process. Please wait till the process gets completed.
Feel free to let us know if you require any further assistance.
Thank you.
.I started up AVG PC Tuneup Maintenance, it went through the first 5 Maintenance jobs (Registry Issues through to Startup & Shutdown) and then started on Disk Fragmentation. Defrag ran from 6:00 p.m. on Saturday 2nd December.until 8:00 a.m. Sunday 3rd December and was still running. A total of 14 hours. I think this is the first time that I have used a Fragmentation program on my 8 year old HP PC. Not certain to let it continue running so I switched off.
Could I ask for advise in regard to this problem?
