File Defragger is a Windows utility for inspecting and defragmenting individual files or folders rather than an entire drive. Its Explorer-style interface shows fragmentation across disk contents, letting users analyze selected items and run defragmentation where needed. It supports FAT, FAT32 and NTFS volumes, including Windows-compressed files, and uses a technique intended to reduce future fragmentation by placing file blocks in fragmented free space. A user guide is included.

File Defragger is a disk utility for Windows users who want to inspect and defragment selected files or folders instead of processing an entire drive. Its Explorer-style interface presents the contents of a disk alongside a view of file fragmentation, helping users identify where fragmented data is located and choose specific items to work on.
The program can analyze files and folders and display their fragmentation so that users can decide what needs attention. A fragmented file or folder can then be defragmented individually. This file-by-file and folder-by-folder approach is useful when only particular data needs maintenance, such as a newly installed game or an application directory, without running a full-drive defragmentation.
File Defragger also uses a space-management technique intended to reduce the likelihood that new files become fragmented. It moves file blocks into fragmented free space, with the aim of leaving larger areas of contiguous free space available on the drive. The interface makes it possible to inspect the spread of fragmentation and select the relevant items before starting the operation.
This targeted workflow can suit users who have recently added games, software, videos, music or photos and want to focus maintenance on the folders containing those files. It also provides a way to check and treat individual files when a whole-drive operation is unnecessary. A user guide is included to explain the utility and its controls.
The utility supports FAT, FAT32 and NTFS volumes, including files compressed with Windows compression. It is offered as demo software and is designed for Windows. Defragmentation changes how files are arranged on a disk; users should ensure important data is backed up before making storage changes.
